Team news

Norwich boss Daniel Farke will check on Grant Hanley's fitness ahead of Saturday's visit of Tottenham.

The defender has only recently returned from four months out with groin and hernia problems and Farke is unsure if the skipper can play his third game in a week.

Ben Godfrey and Timm Klose (both knee) remain out while Josip Drmic (hamstring) is not expected to return until next weekend.

Tottenham trio Heung-Min Son, Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks are all suspended.

Son is serving the second of his three-match ban while Sissoko and Winks serve one-match bans for picking up five yellow cards.

Spurs will check on Dele Alli (groin), Tanguy Ndombele (groin) and Erik Lamela (hamstring) while Ben Davies (ankle) and Hugo Lloris (elbow) are out.

Tanguy Ndombele did not want to play in Tottenham's win over Brighton, Jose Mourinho reveals

Jose critical of festive schedule

Jose Mourinho, speaking after Spurs' Boxing Day win over Brighton: "I cannot believe that my boys have to play again in less than 48 hours.

"If you are going to control the distances they run, the intensity, the sprints, the breaks, if you are going to control that and if we are going to tell any person that understands physiology, it's a crime that they are going to play football again on the 28th.

"It's against every rule of physiology, biology, biochemistry - every rule. But that's the way it is and even with three guys suspended we have to go [to Norwich]."

Opta stats

  • Norwich have won just one of their eight home Premier League games against Tottenham (D2 L5), winning 1-0 in February 2014.
  • Tottenham won 3-0 in both league meetings with Norwich in the 2015-16 campaign - they last won three in a row against the Canaries in April 1995.
  • Tottenham lost their last league game in 2018, going down 1-3 against newly promoted Wolves. They've not lost their final league game in consecutive years since 2003.
  • Norwich have won just one of their last 14 Premier League games (D3 L10), and are winless in six (D2 L4). However, when starting the day bottom of the Premier League table, the Canaries are unbeaten in six games (W5 D1), in a run stretching back to April 2005.
  • After a run of 12 Premier League away games without a win, Tottenham have won two of their last three on the road (L1). The Lilywhites are without a clean sheet in 16 Premier League away games, their longest run without one in the top-flight since a run of 20 between April 1976-April 1977.

Charlie's prediction

Tottenham are not overly impressive at the minute - they dug out a good win against Brighton after going behind, but they may go into a lull again where Jose Mourinho may not be sure who to pick. They are shrouded in uncertainty at the moment.

Norwich will open it up which could and should suit Tottenham to play on the counter. Spurs could pick them off, but Norwich are dangerous so it will be a high-scoring draw.
