    It's been a pretty pleasing start to the season for Gary Rowett's Millwall, who will ascend - albeit most likely temporarily - to the top of the Championship should they win at Carrow Road tonight.

    After four games, the Lions are the second tier's joint top scorers on seven goals.

    Meanwhile, Norwich will be disappointed at losing two of their opening four games but victory tonight would push them right back into the division's upper echelons.

    Positions can change so quickly, of course, at this early stage of the campaign.

    Both sides welcome back key forwards for tonight's clash - but Norwich talisman Teemu Pukki and Millwall's Tom Bradshaw are only included among the substitutes.

    Pukki missed the midweek win over Huddersfield with a foot injury but is available should manager Dean Smith need him.

    Norwich make one change to their starting XI from the victory over the Terriers as Onel Hernandez replaces Todd Cantwell, who drops to the bench.

    Millwall, meanwhile, make three changes from their dramatic 2-2 draw at Swansea as Shaun Hutchinson, George Saville and Ryan Leonard come in to their line-up.

    Norwich: Krul, Aarons, Omobamidele, Hanley, Gibbs, McLean, Nunez, Dowell, Sinani, Hernandez, Sargent.

    Subs: Gunn, Gibson, Sara, Cantwell, Ramsey, Rashica, Pukki.

    Millwall: Bialkowski, McNamara, Wallace, Leonard, Hutchinson, Malone, Saville, Mitchell, Honeyman, Burey, Afobe.

    Subs: Long, Cooper, Flemming, Cresswell, Voglsammer, Bradshaw, Shackleton.

  3. Friday night football once morepublished at 19:45 British Summer Time 19 August 2022

    Norwich v Millwall (20:00 BST)

    Four games in and we're back in the swing of it all, aren't we?

    Well, some more than others, perhaps. But that's the way of football.

    Carrow Road is the venue for tonight's Championship action as newly-relegated Norwich host Millwall.

    The Lions swap their den for the Canaries' cage - but who will roam freest on Friday night under the lights?
