Manager
- P. Clement
- J. Morrison
Philippe Clement's Norwich City have no confirmed injury or suspension news available at this stage, and no probable lineup has been released. Updates will be added closer to kick-off as the club provides further information.
James Morrison's West Brom squad is similarly clear of any confirmed absentees, with no injuries or suspensions listed at this time. The Baggies have not yet named a projected XI, and further squad news is expected ahead of the match.
Form
Norwich City head into this fixture with a record of two wins, two draws, and one loss across their last five matches. Their most recent outing was a 4-1 Carabao Cup win over Milton Keynes Dons, while they drew 0-0 with Cambridge United in a friendly shortly before that. A 1-2 friendly defeat to Osasuna represents their only loss in the run. Across the five matches, the Canaries scored eight goals and conceded three.
West Brom arrive with a perfect five-from-five record, winning all of their last five matches without a single defeat. Their most recent result was a 1-4 Carabao Cup win at Rotherham United, and they also beat Sheffield Wednesday 0-3 in pre-season. The Baggies scored 17 goals across those five games and conceded just three, a run that points to a well-organised and free-scoring side.
Head-to-Head Record
The most recent meeting between these clubs came in the FA Cup on February 14, 2026, when Norwich City won 3-1 at Carrow Road. Before that, West Brom handed Norwich a heavy 0-5 defeat at The Hawthorns in the Championship in January 2026. Across the last five meetings, West Brom have won two, Norwich have won two, and one match ended in a draw, with the sides sharing a 2-2 result at The Hawthorns in November 2024.
