Story summary

The Carabao Cup match between Manchester City and Norwich City is set for broadcast today. Manchester City, currently unbeaten under new head coach Enzo Maresca, are strong favorites at home in the Etihad Stadium after their recent victories in the Premier League and Champions League. These wins include a comeback against Arsenal and a hard-fought victory over Manchester United despite playing with ten men for over an hour. In contrast, Norwich, managed by Philippe Clement, has struggled defensively, recently losing 4-3 to Middlesbrough. The last encounter between these teams ended in a lopsided 4-0 victory for City when they faced Norwich in the Premier League in February 2022. Fans can watch the game on Sky Sports in the UK.
