Nunez and Slimane remain sidelined for Watford trip
- Published
Norwich City travel to Watford on Saturday (12:30 GMT), looking to secure back-to-back Championship wins after victory over Swansea last weekend.
City boss Johannes Hoff Thorup has spoken to the media ahead of the game and here are some of the key points:
Midfielders Marcelino Nunez and Anis Ben Slimane are both out but will be back in training next week.
Gabe Forsyth and Amankwah Forson continue to struggle with knee problems, so remain out. "I hope I have 11 players for tomorrow," says Throup.
Borja Sainz remains part of the first-team group in training despite his six match ban. He will be absent from Saturday's fixture and the following match against Derby County.
Matej Jurasek will join the group next week and will be part of the squad against Derby next weekend.
On the prospect of doing some business before the end of the transfer window, Thorup said: "I hope we can do a little bit towards the end of the window, we have to use every window to get where we want."
On Watford, who Norwich beat 4-1 earlier in the season, he added: "We will try and do some of the same things we did against them earlier this season, but we will have a much different line-up this time - they are a great team.
