Defender Jon Otsemobor says Saturday's opponents Charlton Athletic will be coming to Carrow Road with only one aim in mind.

Jon spoke exclusively to canaries.co.uk about relating to how the Addicks must be feeling: "We were in a similar situation to Charlton last year. We went in to every single game regardless trying to get three points, whether we were home or away. I'm sure they'll be the same, I can't imagine them coming here for a draw or just hoping not to get beaten.

"They need points just as much as we do so I definitely see them coming here and trying to take all the points from us. They're below us in the league, and the gaffer was saying how they looked very nervous in their last match against Derby."

He continued: "We've been concentrating on the game in training this week and come Saturday we'll be fully focussed to get the three points."

City will meet Charlton twice in as many weeks over the festive period, as the two sides will battle it out on January 3 in the third round of the FA Cup at The Valley. Semmy told First News this Saturday's meeting would allow City to learn more about caretaker boss Phil Parkinson's men and their tactics: "We take every game as it comes, it doesn't matter how many times we meet them because we'll treat every game the same.

"It's not too long after we play them this Saturday that we meet them in the FA Cup so we'll obviously have more of an insight in to how they like to play come the Cup game."
