Overview

Norwich City welcome Arsenal to Carrow Road on Sunday in a clash that could see the Gunners return to second place on the table level on points with Premier League leaders Manchester City. The Canaries, on the other hand, will hope to take all three points and move away from the relegation battle.

Alex Neil's side have managed just one win in their last six league encounters and the manager will hope for a better showing against the north London club, who fell to West Bromwich Albion last weekend. Alex Tetty is the only absentee for Norwich, and Russel Martin returns after missing the game against Chelsea due to personal reasons.

Arsenal, meanwhile, will be keen to get back to winning ways after the debacle at the Hawthorns last time around. They managed to bounce back with a 3-0 win over Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League, but the league will be priority for Arsene Wenger.

The Gunners are facing a major injury crisis midway through the season, with Jack Wilshere, Tomas Rosicky, Danny Welbeck, Mikel Arteta, Theo Walcott and Francis Coquelin all sidelined with injuries and neither of them close to a return. The French manager, however, will have the services of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Aaron Ramsey, who have returned after recovering from their respective injuries. It will give a chance for the manager to rotate his squad ahead of crucial fixtures in the Premier League and Europe.

What managers say

Arsene Wenger (Arsenal): "We trust the way we play. We have a desire to play our game and we find good offensive talent with defensive efficiency. [Against] West Brom it is true we had a bad result but it was very unfortunate to lose this game, [and] we have shown that with a good and quick response on Tuesday night."

Alex Neil (Norwich City): "If we can put Arsenal on the back foot, then hopefully that can lift the crowd and that can then spur the players on. We're the home side and we need to make that we go and apply ourselves as well as we can to try and take something from the game."
