Dean Smith faces his former team when Aston Villa travel to Carrow Road for Tuesday night's Premier League fixture (7.45pm KO).
The opposition
Steven Gerrard's side go into the game off the back of a slim 1-0 defeat away to Liverpool on Saturday.
Since his appointment, Villa have beaten Brighton & Hove Albion, Crystal Palace and Leicester City and lost to Manchester City.
The club parted ways with Smith following a run of five straight defeats in the Premier League throughout October and November.
Villa are 13th in the division going into the game with 19 points, nine more than Norwich City.
Ollie Watkins is their top scorer in the Premier League with four goals so far this season.
Head-to-head
There have been 72 meetings between Norwich and Aston Villa, resulting in 22 Norwich wins, 34 Villa wins and 16 draws.
Last time we met was in December 2019, Conor Hourihane's 64th minute goal the difference at Villa Park.
