Norwich City have retained the same squad and starting XI from last weekend's 7-1 win over Reading for this afternoon Championship match against Fulham at Carrow Road.
Interim head coach Alan Irvine has opted to keep faith with the team which dismantled Reading, with Nelson Oliveira continuing to lead the line in attack and John Ruddy keeping his place in goal.
The visitors have made just one change from their 3-1 home win over Ipswich last weekend, with Michael Madl missing out and being replaced in the centre of defence by Tim Ream and former Canaries striker Chris Martin retaining his starting place up front.
Norwich: Ruddy; Pinto, Martin (C), Klose, Dijks; Tettey, Howson; Jacob Murphy, Pritchard, Hoolahan; Oliveira. Subs: McGovern (GK), Whittaker, Naismith, Jerome, Wildschut, Bennett, Josh Murphy.
Fulham: Bettinelli; Fredericks, Kalas, Ream, Malone; Johnasen, McDonald; Aluko, Cairney (C), Ayite; Martin. Subs: Button (GK), Kebano, Parker, Cyriac, Sigurdsson, Piazon, Sessegnon.
Referee: Andrew Madley
