Norwich City

The Terriers go up against a familiar face once again as Neil Warnock's side take on former Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner and his promotion hopefuls ...

Reading are well clear of Town but at risk of a points deduction; they travel to Blackburn this evening. Just a couple of other games of potential relevance to Town elsewhere tonight. [Danny Ward is again a doubt](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/huddersfield-town-transfer-embargo-efl-26461448) after sickness prevent him from playing the last game and a half for Town, but Duane Holmes is back in training after his calf injury may be an option should Neil Warnock decide to take the chance rather than wait for Millwall at the weekend or the other side of the international break. [Huddersfield Town](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/huddersfield-town-fc) face their latest tough challenge as they aim to get back off the foot of the Championship table by getting a result at home to [David Wagner's](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/david-wagner) Norwich City. [Neil Warnock's](https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/all-about/neil-warnock) side back to the bottom of the table with both Blackpool and Wigan Athletic picking up points, but the gap to safety remains six points with Cardiff set to host West Bromwich Albion tonight. If they are to cut that down, Town will need to find much better form in front of goal having failed to score in six of their past seven games, but they can expect a hard time of it against a Norwich side who sit just three points outside the play-offs.

Norwich City bid to get back to winning ways tonight in the Sky Bet Championship as they take on Huddersfield Town in the second tier.

It's clear they are not far away from a return if they have a chance of playing this evening, and the call needs to be whether or not them featuring them tonight could aggravate things and cause a longer lay-off. Indeed, they've got a great chance at bouncing back to winning ways as they face lowly Huddersfield Town tonight, though obviously the Terriers are fighting for their lives and will make it hard for the Yellows under Neil Warnock. The Yellows lost at home to Sunderland at the weekend in what was a dent to their play-off hopes in the second tier but, even so, they've still got a great chance of finishing inside the top six this season.

There will be little room for sentiment as David Wagner returns to Huddersfield Town seeking a response with his play-off chasing Norwich City side.

The 74-year-old has won once, drawn one and lost three of his opening five games in charge. He will return to his former employers for the first time as an opposition manager.

Norwich City drew 1-1 with Huddersfield Town in the Sky Bet Championship on Wednesday night.

AHEAD of the sentimental return of a Huddersfield Town icon in David Wagner to the John Smith's Stadium, wistful Terriers supporters were entitled to ...

In a pure footballing match, they had no chance and knew it. Going forward, Town, given their goal famine, had a confidence issue. Wagner, who left the pitch after clapping the Huddersfield fans who used to adore him, had more concerns. It was an opener which had certainly been coming. A draw is not much good for either side, in truth, in their contrasting pursuits. The club are also operating under a transfer embargo after filing their accounts late.

We then had problems with the two injuries, which minimised the subs we could make later in the game and we could not find our rhythm in the second half. I must be an idiot for coming here with that run of fixtures, but we need to give them all a game and get the crowd clapping. That means we will have to find solutions now against Stoke on Saturday and we will need to call up under-21 players." We played in the right spaces and had three good chances with Kenny McLean missing the target with two of them. He lofted a measured chip over an out-of-position Gunn and, after the ball hit the keeper's right-hand post, it struck a helpless Hanley and bounced back across the line. "I thought it was a good game and I enjoyed it.

Jack Rudoni found space from last soon after and facnied his chances to score, shoting from outside the box - despite connecting well, the ball went high and over the bar. This corner once again fell to the feet of Jackson and his first time shot was blocked.

David Wagner's honeymoon period is over - the Premier League looks a million miles away for Norwich City right now.

All available evidence is pointing to a bigger picture that will involve greater time and patience. The sort of player justifying his £10million fee and one Norwich would want to build their future around. “I always want to live in the present,” said Sara. There was also a late, straight red card for [Arsenal](https://theathletic.com/football/team/arsenal/) loanee Marquinhos after he caught [Josh Ruffels](https://theathletic.com/football/player/josh-ruffels-hiRwXTN6S1puRAri/) with his elbow. But not for the first time, Norwich’s shortcomings appeared to revolve around attitude and mentality. This time, Sara’s strike came with a trademark run into the box. Brazilian midfielder Sara’s sixth goal of the season was his third in four games; a run which included his showstopper away to Millwall. That passage of such time was underlined by David Wagner’s first return to the club, now as Norwich head coach, and that it barely registered with those in attendance. This was from the same school of vintage bad performances under his predecessor Dean Smith, who was sacked just after Christmas following a similarly limp, listless performance away to Luton Town on Boxing Day. [Marquinhos](https://theathletic.com/football/player/marquinhos-vs0anBCNtamN4gfa/) (suspension) can be added to Jon Rowe (hamstring), [Onel Hernandez](https://theathletic.com/football/player/onel-hernandez-65KGxchv8unE09pR/) (ankle) and the longer-term unavailability of [Kieran Dowell](https://theathletic.com/football/player/kieran-dowell-ogHB5vz3NZDinjTe/) (knee). Norwich still dominated possession in the second half yet their passing accuracy dropped from 82 per cent before the interval, to 77. One devoid of confidence and belief.

Goal in each half, red card and strong Town finish at John Smith's Stadium.
