| Norwich City travel to South Wales to play Swansea City on Saturday, with both promoted sides still flying high in the top half of the table and only two points between them. Both sides have taken 12 points from their last 8 games, but with Norwich recording a 3-1 victory over the Swans earlier in the season, they may take some confidence into this fixture. Then again, while the Canaries have a superior away record, Swansea have performed better at home - this is a tough game to call. |

Zak Whitbread and Elliott Ward could be fit for the game, which would give Paul Lambert valuable options after the Ayala's injury in their win over Bolton. New signing Jonny Howson was signed injured, so it may be some time before he can make his debut. Orlandi and Bodde seem likely to miss out for Brendan Rodgers' side.
The chief threat for Norwich to deal with will be Danny Graham, who has scored four goals in his last three league games against them, while at the other end Swansea will have to deal with a considerable aerial threat. Norwich have scored more headed goals than any other side in the top division, with Grant Holt and Steve Morison a formidable partnership.
