The Canaries have struggled with consistency at times this season, but they are closing in on the top six following a strong few weeks.
David Wagner’s side won their third game in a row with a 2-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion at Carrow Road on Saturday, thanks to goals from Josh Sargent and Jonathan Rowe.
Norwich are currently eighth in the table, just two points from the play-offs, and will return to action on Wednesday night when they travel to Elland Road to face Leeds United.

It has been a quiet January transfer window so far for the Canaries, who are yet to bring in any new additions, but Wagner may be hoping to change that with just over a week until the deadline.
As speculation continues to gather pace, we rounded up all the latest Norwich transfer news.
Wagner issues significant Rowe update
One of the most important transactions the Canaries could complete this month is the retention of winger Jonathan Rowe.
Rowe has had an outstanding season thus far, scoring 13 goals and providing four assists in 30 appearances across all competitions, cementing himself as one of the Championship’s most exciting players.
Norwich rejected a £15 million bid from Wolverhampton Wanderers in August, while Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur, and Brentford have all been linked in recent months.
Wagner stated that there are no indications that he will move this month, as reported by Sky Sports’ Transfer Centre.
“I am confident he will join us at the end of the month.
“His performance today was excellent, as was that of the entire team; he came close twice in the first half, scored a good goal in the second, and maintained a high level of energy throughout.
“He is a great young player, but there is still a lot of work to do.”
