Old meets new as evolving City face biggest test of the season so far



City look to extend their unbeaten run at Carrow Road to 19 matches as they welcome the very side who denied them a chance at last season?s Championship Playoff Final, Leeds United.

After recording just their eighth win from their last 27 games away from home in the Championship, the Canaries look to go level on points with the Yorkshire side who sit in fifth place with 14 points from a possible 21.

Daniel Farke?s men have only lost once in their opening seven, conceding just four goals. Three of them came at Elland Road on opening day against Portsmouth in a 3-3 draw.

But this is a new-look Norwich side, which is showing progress in their new style of play, and which has started to hit form after a rough start under Johannes Hoff Thorup. They have won three of their last four in the league, including becoming the first side to beat Derby County at Pride Park in nine games with a 3-2 success on Saturday afternoon, with Borja Sainz scoring a first career hattrick.
Sainz has now scored six goals in seven Championship games. The 23-year-old is in fine form and his teammates are beginning to gel. As a result, City have now moved up to ninth in the table on 11 points.

They have also only won three of the last 17 meetings, with the last one at Carrow Road coming in 2018 in Wesley Hoolahan?s 349th,...
