Another big game for the Sky Blues as they look to produce a similar display to Wednesday’s against QPR but this time with a finishing touch.
Norwich still have outside hopes of making the play-offs, something that would have seemed extremely implausible when Glenn Roeder gained his first win as Canaries boss against City earlier in the season.
Vital Quotes: Chris Coleman
‘You want your strikers to score and we had some chances the other night,’ Coleman told the Coventry Telegraph after seeing his side draw a blank against QPR.
‘But they kept getting in there and that’s the only way to correct what’s going wrong.’

Jay Tabb has a knock so Julian Gray could get the chance to improve on a poor display against Scunthorpe and a completely innocuous stint as a sub against QPR.
Player to watch: Michael Mifsud
Looked much more of a threat against QPR than in recent weeks.
‘He needs a little bit more composure in the final third but you often find that with quick players who generally play at one speed,’ said boss Coleman.
Norwich City Team News:
Darren Huckerby is unlikely to feature but Darel Russell returns after suspension to the heart of the midfield.

Pushing for a start after netting as a substitute in the 1-1 draw at Watford on Tuesday night.
