Last time out: Ipswich (A)

Norwich City travel to face Ipswich at Portman Road on Sunday in the first East Anglian derby of the season.

The Canaries come into the game on a eight-game unbeaten streak against the Suffolk-based side.

But what happened last time Norwich went to Portman Road? Alex Neil was manager of the club at the time, in August of last season.

Alex Morton/Getty Images SportIt was a 1-1 between the two sides, with both goals coming in the first-half of the fiercely contested fixture.

Norwich opened the scoring in the game, with Cameron Jerome rolling the ball into the bottom corner from the edge of the box.

Ipswich found their leveller before half-time, though, as left-back Jonas Knudsen beat Michael McGovern with a low-driven strike from distance.

The previous clash between the two sides before that at Portman Road was also a 1-1 draw – in the play-off semi-final.

Jonny Howson opened the scoring for Norwich before Paul Anderson’s equaliser.

Norwich won the second leg 3-1 at Carrow Road and were then promoted to the Premier League after beating Middlesbrough 2-0 in the final.
