Norwich midfielder Darel Russell is set to return on Saturday as the Canaries chase a victory over struggling Coventry at the Ricoh Arena.Russell has missed the last three games through suspension after he was sent off at Leicester but he will return to partner captain Mark Fotheringham at the heart of the midfield.

That should see Matthew Pattison move out to wide left and Ryan Bertrand move back to left-back with Mo Camara - who endured a torrid evening in the 1-1 draw with Watford in midweek - missing out.

Striker Jamie Cureton is pushing for a recall after he scored for the third successive game at Vicarage Road after coming on as a late substitute while Jason Shackell could replace Alex Pearce after the Reading youngster was replaced against the Hornets.

Forward Darren Huckerby remains out with a groin injury while Adam Drury (knee) and Luke Chadwick (shoulder) remain long-term absentees.
