Norwich City visit the Memorial Stadium on Wednesday to face Bristol Rovers in a replay of their third-round clash in the 2023-24 FA Cup.
On Saturday, the sides played out a 1-1 draw in Norwich as Ashley Barnes’ 12th-minute opener for the Canaries was canceled out by Grant Ward, just five minutes later.
Bristol had only 38% possession but created more chances and looked more threatening, and will be looking to get the job done at home this week.
However, the Pirates are reeling from a 2-1 loss to Barnsley in League One at the weekend.
Corey O’Keefe scored the winner for the hosts just five minutes after Chris Martin equalized for Bristol, who are now winless in their last three games in all competitions.
Meanwhile, Norwich overcame Hull City 2-1 in the Championship on Saturday.
Jonathan Rowe and Christian Fassnacht scored apiece in normal time to put them 2-0 up before Tyler Morton pulled a consolation strike back for the hosts in stoppage time.
Bristol have a good record against Norwich in the FA Cup, but have struggled in more recent clashes, while their form right now isn’t the most promising either. The Canaries could see this one through.
