Best League Win: 9-0 v Darwen
09/01/1892 Division 1
Last meeting: Norwich City 2,
Burnley 0 (April 5, 2008): Norwich
City started and finished in style
as they recorded a very valuable victory
over Burnley at Carrow Road. Dion
Dublin opened the scoring after just
one minute and one second when he
side-footed home from a Darren Huckerby
cross. But it took the Canaries until
the very last minute to wrap up the
three Championship points when substitute
Ched Evans scored his first goal for
eight weeks following another Huckerby
pass. Full

Last Norwich
away win: 3/4/2004 Burnley
3 (Wood, May, Blake), Norwich 5 (Svensson
2, Huckerby 2, McKenzie)
Chances: Something
of a revolution is taking place at
Turf Moor under Coyle. Since his arrival
in November, the Clarets were a changed
outfit. Now he had gotten rid of star
man Kyle Lafferty and replaced him
with Norwich City target Martin Paterson,
who will be expected to deliver the
goals for a promotion challenge. Coyle
is still keen to spend cash on attacking
players to add flair to a workmanlike
side, who could be there or thereabouts
in May.
