Norwich City have named an unchanged starting line-up for their Championship meeting with Coventry City this afternoon.
The Canaries beat Preston North End 4-0 with the same 11 last weekend, and will be hoping to repeat the trick against Mark Robins' Sky Blues at the CBS Arena.
Ben Gibson is expected to return to fitness for City's home clash with Burnley next month but was not considered fit enough to make the matchday squad today, despite training intermittently during the week.Todd Cantwell is in Scotland completing a permanent move to Glasgow Rangers, having failed to register a single goal or assist this term.
Also missing is Isaac Hayden, who will be out long term after having further knee surgery. Wagner stated that his loan from Newcastle could not be cancelled, but that “it looks like for the last games of the season he can be ready to be back on the grass”.
Young winger Jonathan Rowe is sidelined with an ankle injury that’s expected to keep him out at least until March.
Hosts Coventry are also unchanged from their 1-0 defeat to table toppers Burnley last week.
