Good afternoon, and welcome to live coverage of Norwich City versus Leeds United in the Premier League. Did someone say relegation six-pointer? It’s a bit early in the piece for that, but both sides are currently languishing in the relegation zone with one solitary Premier League victory between them in 18 matches. Ergo, a win for either side today will be a huge boost in a season where they have laboured badly so far. Team news hot off the wires for you shortly.

This is the first Premier League meeting between the two since May 1995, when a last minute goal from Carlton Palmer secured Leeds a 2-1 win at Elland Road that assisted in booting Norwich through the trapdoor and into the First Division.

Leeds United haven’t fared much better. Last weekend they were within seconds of another league defeat, until a Rodrigo goal snatched a draw at home to Wolves. Will that goal prove to be one that tilts their fortunes this season? They were bounced out of the EFL Cup by Arsenal in the week, but can clamber out of the relegation with a win today.

It’s been a grim return to the Premier League for Norwich. They’ve only scored twice in nine matches, the last of which was on the 18 September, with 23 going in at the other end. There have been several low points, but the biggest nadir was last weekend’s 7-0 hammering at Stamford Bridge by league leaders Chelsea. Right now they’re nailed to the bottom of the Premier League; can they possibly pull out a result today to give their faithful something to believe in?
13:30
For Leeds there's just one change, as England midfielder Kalvin Phillips takes the place of Mateusz Klich.
13:25
There are three changes for Norwich today as Milot Rashica, Kieran Dowell and Andrew Omobamidele come in to the side.
