Norwich City will play their next Premier League fixture at home where they will host Brighton & Hove Albion. 

It has been a tough season for Norwich City as they are currently 20th on the Premier League ladder with 21 points from their 32 games. In their previous outing, Norwich were beaten 4-0 away from home against Arsenal. While the loss was not an unexpected result, the manner of the defeat was quite disappointing as the team lacked any threat. Norwich City allowed Arsenal to take 13 shots and the team trailed for most of the match. Things are looking bad for Norwich City and they must turn their form around quickly if they wish to avoid relegation. 

On the other side of the coin, Brighton have also had a tough season as they are currently in 15th position. Brighton have 33 points from their 32 games. Brighton are currently 6 points above the relegation zone so they must win a few more games to ensure safety. Brighton lost their previous match as they were beaten 3-0 at home by Manchester United. It was a poor match for Brighton as the team only had 38% of the ball and 2 shots. This is a big game for Brighton as it is the best chance the team will have of getting another 3 points and moving clear of the relegation zone.
