Norwich City head to Swansea on Wednesday evening for the first of two away games this week.

A 7.45pm kick-off at the Swansea.com Stadium is up first midweek before the Canaries head to Coventry City on Saturday afternoon. They'll be hoping to follow up Saturday's win against Birmingham City with a further three points. **The Opposition** After a difficult beginning to life under Michael Duff, Swansea have now won back-to-back league games to move up to 19th. They had failed to win in any of their first seven league games but are now unbeaten in three with two 3-0 wins coming against Sheffield Wednesday and Millwall. Duff and co will be hoping to build on that positive momentum this week. **One To Watch
Charlie Patino** Sitting at the base of the Swansea midfield is loan signing from Arsenal Charlie Patino. The 19-year-old impressed while with Blackpool last season prompting the Jacks to compete for his signature this time around. Also an England underage international, he'll have a big say in Swansea's fortunes this season.
**The Manager
Michael Duff** After guiding Barnsley to the League One play-off final last season, where they narrowly lost to Sheffield Wednesday, Michael Duff was recruited to take over at Swansea City from the departing Russell Martin. As a player, he had represented Cheltenham Town and Burnley, making over 300 appearances for both, as well as 24 appearances for Northern Ireland. He began his coaching career with an Academy position at Burnley before becoming Cheltenham's head coach in 2018. He led them to the League Two title in 2020/21 followed by their highest league finish before departing for Barnsley in June 2022. **Last Time Out** Norwich's last visit to the Swansea.com Stadium came in December 2022, the first game back after the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. While the home side would dominate possession for the 90 minutes, the Canaries would come out on top thanks to Teemyu Pukki's goal after just 58 seconds. Watch the highlights below.
