Nearly a muddle at the back for Norwich. John Ruddy calls "keepers" for a ball through, and skipper Russell Martin is happy to shepherd it to him, with Diafra Song, sorry Sakho, bearing down.

The English stopper initially makes a hash of it, but dives on the ball at the second attempt...

...and has to pull his shorts up after!

Another chance for the visitors. Robbie Brady carves open the West Ham defence with a through ball, but Cameron Jerome shanks his shot into the side netting. He needed to go across the goalkeeper there.

West Ham all over the place at the back.

A coming together between Steven Whittaker and Dimitri Payet on the halfway line. The Scot nudges his opponent in the face, much to the anger of the home fans, but ref Mike Dean sees nothing in it and allows play to continue.

West Ham need to get Dimitri Payet and Victor Moses involved in this game, the pair have been anonymous so far.

Centre-back James Tomkins gallops forward and sees the chance of glory, letting fly from around 35 yards out, but it's a defender's strike, high and wide.

West Ham are struggling a little, unable to get any cohesion between the front men.

In fact, it's Norwich who look likelier to double their lead. Jonny Howson finds space in the box with a smart turn, but his effort is wild and into the stand.

Almost another! Graham Dorrans slides an inch-perfect pass through to put full-back Steven Whittaker in on goal, but the Scot's powerful shot is blocked. That was travelling, and headed straight for the top corner.

Can West Ham respond? Not yet. They're trying to string a few passes together to get themselves going but Norwich are comfortable at the back.

The Canaries themselves are playing the ball on the deck, making use of the lush, green grass.

  "It's these types of games they need to start winning. It's a poor ball from Mark Noble and it gets picked up in midfield, and it's a good finish from Robbie Brady."

A reducer from Alex Tettey!!

A crunching tackle on West Ham's Dimitri Payet, but card happy referee Mike Dean keeps them in his pocket on this occasion. A real old school tackle from the Ghanaian.

Cheikhou Kouyate has to do better! He rises to met Mark Noble's lovely ball into the box, but gets his jump wrong. The ball comes off his chest rather than his head and falls into the hands of John Ruddy, who takes it with ease.

Pressure from the home side. Can they make it count?

   "Are they set up more as a counter-attacking side? The question now is can they do it at home. If they can transfer those away performances to Upton Park, they will be a force."  

Norwich keeper John Ruddy comes and gets a double fist on the ball to clear. Good, confident, decisive goalkeeping.

Corner is well dealt with by the visitors, but West Ham are swinging some good balls into the box and Sebastian Bassong concedes another corner kick...

At the other end, Diafra Song, sorry Sakho, has West Ham's first shot on goal which is blocked by the Norwich defender.

Left-back Martin Olsson then has to concede a corner...

First attempt on goal, as Cameron Jerome's header from inside the box is straight at Adrian.

Nice for the Spaniard to get his hands on the ball early.

Huddles, handshakes, chest bumps done.

We are under way at Upton Park.

Teams are in the tunnel as they wait to emerge onto the pitch. New father Russell Martin, scorer against Liverpool last weekend, beats his chest and pats his face. He looks up for this. Must be those sleepless nights driving him mad!

I was a two-year-old running around in my nappy the last time Norwich won at West Ham...
