Philippe Clement will be hoping that Norwich City can pull further away from the relegation zone with a victory at Leicester City on Saturday (February 28).
The Foxes, meanwhile, will be aiming for their first win under new boss Gary Rowett after a late equaliser prevented them from winning all three points away at Stoke last weekend.
The Canaries go into the match eight points clear of their opponents having eased past Sheffield Wednesday midweek thanks to first-half goals from Mathias Kvistgaarden and Paris Maghoma.
A remarkable run since the turn of the year has seen Norwich win the most Championship points in 2026, including impressive wins over Coventry City and Wrexham.
A win against the Foxes would see Clement’s side on 45 points with 11 games to go, all but quashing any fears of relegation.
Norwich will go into Saturday’s clash missing 16 first team players through injury, including striker Mohamed Toure who was substituted in the seventh minute against Wednesday due to a groin injury.
The home side, winless in their last five matches, are sitting on 34 points in 22nd place.
Having been docked six points by the EFL due to financial breaches, the Foxes are now facing the very real possibility of back-to-back relegations and will be eyeing three points on Saturday as a must.

Daniel’s betting prediction
According to OddsChecker, Norwich are slight favourites to win the lunchtime kick-off, with a 38% chance of an away win.
With away wins against QPR, Wrexham, West Brom and Oxford since the turn of the year, it’s perhaps unsurprising that the Canaries are the bookies favorites for this one.
But Leicester’s undoubted attacking talent will be a tough test for a sturdy Norwich defence, so you can’t blame anyone backing a home win.
I’m going with a score-draw, with current odds of 5/2.
