West Bromwich Albion host Norwich City, with both sides in the Premier League top half.

Norwich City travel to West Bromwich Albion on Saturday in a clash between two of the Premier League's surprise packages.

West Brom got themselves into the top four early in the season but a run of three defeats and a draw has seen them slip to seventh.

Norwich are now just two points and a place behind their hosts after three straight Premier League wins.

West Brom manager Steve Clarke will be without Youssouf Mulumbu, who is suspended, but could welcome back Liam Ridgewell and Claudio Yacob.

Chris Hughton has no suspended players but will most likely be without striker Grant Holt, who was forced off against Wigan Athletic.
