Preview: Norwich City vs. Aston Villa

Sports Mole previews Saturday's Premier League meeting between Norwich City and Aston Villa at Carrow Road.

Aston Villa will be looking to pull away from the Premier League's bottom three when they travel to Norwich City on Saturday.

Paul Lambert's side have lost three of their opening four fixtures, including last Saturday's 2-1 reversal to Newcastle United at Villa Park.

Norwich, who sit two places and one point ahead of Villa in 15th, were beaten 2-0 by Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

Canaries boss Chris Hughton has no fresh injury concerns but may decide to shuffle his pack, with Gary Hooper in contention to make his debut after recovering from a shin injury.

Villa manager Paul Lambert may make changes to the side that lost against Newcastle, with Aleksandar Tonev and Libor Kozak pushing for starts.
