The FA Cup affected Gameweek 34 swings into action with title challengers Manchester City facing a stern test at Carrow Road. The Dugout Discussion opens for what will surely be an eventful day, with one eye on the Premier League and one eye on the goings on at Wembley (and also perhaps Aintree). The team news from our early kick-off is in, and the line-ups are as follows…

Norwich XI: Ruddy, Martin, Ward, Ryan Bennett, Drury, Elliott Bennett, Howson, Johnson, Pilkington, Holt, Wilbraham

Man City XI: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, De Jong, Barry, Nasri, Tevez, Aguero, Silva

The Canaries name an unchanged side from their successful trip to White Hart Lane, and Pablo Zabaleta in for Micah Richards is City’s only alteration.

After the title race has either heated up or died down, we’ve got another three Premier League games to enjoy. The almost relegated Wolves take a trip to the Stadium of Light, fellow strugglers Blackburn travel to Swansea, and West Brom host QPR, another side looking to avoid the drop.

Follow all the action as it unfolds in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which is open and can be accessed right here.

    I was watching the Merseyside derby.

    Are Norwich just literally lying down in the grass and cloud watching. What's going on here?

      City haven't been amazing but Norwich have been so open, got a lot worse in the second half though.

    If rvp and rooney do nothing I may have to adjust my forward line... City look to be picking momentum, even without a dgw. There are no guarantees in dgw and those dgw may end up 0—0 draws... So frustrating.

    Looks like City have hit their early season form again, time to load up again I think. That DGW and MU derby are massively distracting though.
