Farke’s side got some confidence mid-week as his side beat Bournemouth 6-0 in the Carabao Cup 2nd round match with Tzolis and Sargent scored twice each before McLean and Rupp found the back of the net as well.

That being said, Norwich will be desperate to get cracking in the Premier League as they do not want to fall too far behind the pack.

On the other hand, Leicester City suffered a humiliating 1-4 away loss to West Ham United on Tuesday as they dropped their first points of the season.

Antonio scored a brace while Fornals and Benrahma also found the back of the net.

Leicester saw Tielemans pull one back which was a mere consolation effort while Ayoze Perez was sent off with a straight red in the 1st half.

Rodgers would be discouraged by the lack of control from his side post the dismissal, but his side has enough in the tank to get back to their best.

ImageBoth sides met in the Premier League last in February, 2020 where Norwich won 1-0 through a second half strike from Lewis.

Prediction: Norwich 0-2 Leicester City

We expect Leicester to return to winning ways when they face an out of form, Norwich side.

The likes of Vardy and Iheanacho will aim to rattle the Canaries defence with their pace and on an all-round basis, Leicester have a better squad and should pick up the points based on form.

Players to watch out for: Tzokis, Rashica, Iheanacho and Tielemans.
