Norwich City will have the comfort of a home game this Boxing Day as they welcome Millwall in the Championship on Thursday (15:00 GMT).

Head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup spoke to the media on Tuesday - here are some of the key points from his news conference:

  • Goalkeeper Angus Gunn is free to play after not receiving a ban for misconduct in the match at QPR.

  • No new injuries, but they will miss Jose Cordoba after his red card against Sunderland on Saturday.

  • Thorup says the Canaries are vulnerable at defending set-pieces at the moment and it's something they are addressing.

  • On their recent poor form, he said: "We need to be clever. Finding the balance between pushing and settling for what we are capable of at the moment."

  • On Millwall: "They are one of those teams that you can't switch off for even a second because they will punish you."
