Norwich City (2-2-3, 9 points) will try to keep their unbeaten run against Leicester City (3-1-3, 12 points), who are coming off their first loss of the 2015-2016 Premier League season, as they clash at the Carrow Road on October 3, Saturday.
The newly-promoted Canaries have not tasted defeat in their last three outings with one win and two draws following their 0-3 loss to Southampton in week 4 of competitions. Their last game was a 2-2 tie versus contending squad West Ham United at the Boleyn Ground last Saturday.
Alex Neil's squad is actually ahead by one, 2-1, after full time but Irons midfielder Cheikhou Kouyaté managed to score one in injury time to force the draw, via Yahoo Sports.
Meanwhile, the Foxes suffered their first defeat of the season in the hands of top team Arsenal, 2-5, at the King Power Stadium also on Saturday, as per Bleacher Report.
Leicester forward Jamie Vardy's double was not enough for Claudio Ranieri's boys to win as the Gunners' trio of strikers Alexis Sanchez, Theo Walcott, and Oliver Giroud all found the back of the net during the match.
Ranieri will look to bounce back from that loss against the Yellows as Vardy and midfielder Riyad Mahrez will lead the Blue Army up front.
