    "This is just the game Manchester City need after a strange week. In their defeat by West Ham last weekend, it was almost as if they woke up with 30 minutes to go and realised they might get beaten.

    "I don't know if it is down to the manager but it has happened with City before - they almost seem to think they can win at any sort of stage of the game, but that is not the case in the Premier League.

    "As for Manchester United, going forward against Chelsea they probably looked as dangerous as any team has done against them this season. Defensively, however, they are still very poor and the mistakes they are making are schoolboy errors."

    Accrington move up to ninth in the League Two table after edging Morecambe 2-1 in a Lancashire derby. That's five wins in eight games for John Coleman's men.

    Norwich City manager Neil Adams tells Sky Sports: "A lot has been made of our last five games and we have played a lot better in some of them than we have tonight. But I thought we were value for money and could have had a couple more goals. There were a few butterflies towards the end but we deserved it."

    "Swansea had slipped a bit after winning their first three games but they beat Leicester quite convincingly last time out and are back in the top six.

    "Everton have also recovered from a bit of a wobble, in their case by beating Aston Villa and Burnley comfortably, and they should carry on climbing the table.

    "Their target now has to be to turn Goodison Park back into a difficult place for teams to get a result, after only taking two points from their first three home games."

    Cameron Jerome will get the plaudits for his goals but what a fantastic performance by Nathan Redmond.

    The 20-year-old winger has been linked with a move away from Carrow Road, but tells Sky Sports: "I'm happy here. We're pushing for promotion but it's going to be tough. I'm sure we'll be up there in the mix though."

    And what of Bolton? Neil Lennon's second defeat since taking charge earlier this month leaves them third from bottom in the table, two points from safety.

    A wave of relief sweeps around Carrow Road. The Canaries are up to third in the Championship table, level on points with Derby, Watford and Wolves.

    But it comes to nothing. The whistle goes and Norwich have their first win in six.

    Corner to Bolton. Keeper Andy Lonergan is up...

    The yellow shirts of Norwich are penned inside their own area. Craig Davies has been a livewire since coming on for Bolton and is causing the home defence big problems.

    A hopeful punt by goalscorer Lee Chung-yong into the Norwich box but John Ruddy is off his line to claim before any damage can be inflicted. Neil Lennon is screaming at his Bolton players to get forward.

    Four minutes of added time. White shirts pouring forward.

    One minute of normal time remaining. Suddenly, Carrow Road is oh so quiet. Nervous tension everywhere.

  16. GOALpublished at 21:32 Greenwich Mean Time 31 October 2014

    They can't can they? This game has just got extremely interesting thanks to Lee Chung-yong who fires home from close range after running onto Craig Davies's flick-on. Game on.

    I've seen some things on the pitch but....

    The television cameras have picked up on Darren Pratley planting a cheeky kiss on the cheek of a Norwich player. The kiss of death? Hardly. Norwich are well on their way towards their first win in six league games.

    "Leicester are still in a sticky patch after that big win over Manchester United and, away from home, they have been goal shy. They are more of a threat at home, though, and I still think they will be fine in terms of staying up.

    "West Brom seem to be so reliant on Saido Berahino's goals at the moment, but his purple patch will not last forever. The Baggies showed character to fight back from 2-0 down to draw with Crystal Palace last time out but, for me, the outcome of this game will depend on Leicester's approach. If it is a positive one, they will win."

    Another fine save by Andy Lonergan to keep out substitute Lewis Grabban. If Norwich, who need one more goal to go top, aren't at the summit at the end of this game then it will be because of Bolton's keeper.
