There's one more Sky Bet Championship fixture before the international break for Norwich City, as they travel to Staffordshire to face Stoke City (KO 3pm).
The Canaries made it six home wins on the bounce with a 5-0 win over Rotherham United on Saturday, with Josh Sargent, Gabriel Sara (2), Borja Sainz and Jacob Sørensen on the scoresheet.
Three points saw David Wagner's side move into the Championship play-off places.
**The Opposition**
It's been a disappointing campaign for Stoke so far this season, as they currently occupy 19th place in the Championship.
Stoke will look to drag themselves away from a potential relegation battle towards the end of the season, and have won two of their last three league outings.
They come into this fixture on the back of a 2-1 win away to Preston North End.
**One to Watch**
**Ki-Jana Hoever** Born in Amsterdam, Ki-Jana Hoever spent time in his youth at both AZ Alkmaar and Ajax, before making the switch to Liverpool. He made four senior appearances for the Reds, before joining Wolves in September 2020. The Netherlands Under-21s international joined PSV Eindhoven on loan during the 2022/23 season. Hoever first joined Stoke on loan in January 2023, impressing during his short stint. He returned to the Potters on a season-long loan for the 2023/24 campaign.

**The Manager**
**Steven Schumacher** Steven Schumacher became Stoke manager in December 2023, replacing Alex Neil. After a playing career that included spells at Bradford City and Bury, Schumacher worked under Ryan Lowe at both Bury and Plymouth Argyle. After Lowe's departure from the Pilgrims, Schumacher became Plymouth manager in December 2021 and guided the side to the League One title. **Last Time Out** Back in September, the Canaries claimed a 1-0 win against the Potters at Carrow Road. Jack Stacey scored his first goal for the club just before half-time, as Norwich claimed all three points. Watch the highlights below.
