    West Ham United V Norwich City

    UPTON PARK
    11TH FEBRUARY 2014 - KICK OFF 19:45

     West Ham United return to the Boleyn Ground to face Norwich City in the Barclays Premier League on Tuesday night having recorded back-to-back wins for the first time since the Club was promoted back to the top- light in 2012.
    • Consecutive 2-0 wins over Swansea City and Aston Villa have moved the Hammers up to 15th place in the league, one position above the Canaries by virtue of a superior goal difference.
    • The win against the Villans means the Hammers are now three games without defeat in the Premier League, with a 0-0 draw at Chelsea also contributing to the run which has seen Sam Allardyce's side take seven points from a possible nine.
    • On Tuesday night the home side will be looking to record just their second victory at the Boleyn Ground in 2014.
    • Norwich City arrive in east London having drawn 0-0 with Manchester City at Carrow Road at the weekend.
    • The Canaries have gone three matches without a win in the Premier League, their last success coming against Hull City in a 1-0 win on 18 January.
    • Chris Hughton's side will be looking to win on their travels for the first time in four matches since they overcame West Bromwich Albion in December 2013.

    Team news

    West Ham United
    • Andy Carroll serves the second match of his three-game ban on Tuesday night, following his red card versus Swansea City.
    • Joey O'Brien is the Hammers' only long-term injury casualty with the full-back having undergone an operation on the shoulder he dislocated against Chelsea.
    • Joe Cole (calf) and Mohamed Diame (gashed leg) missed the trip to Birmingham but could be fit for the visit of Norwich.

    Norwich City

    • The Canaries are waiting on the fitness of Robert Snodgrass, after he missed Saturday's game against Manchester City with a groin injury.
    • Gary Hooper will be fit after picking up a kick to the foot in the same game, but Jonas Gutierrez is out.

    Previous meeting

    West Ham United failed to take advantage of a dominant first half at Norwich City as the Canaries recovered from a one-goal deficit to triumph 3-1. The Hammers bossed proceedings and took the lead through Ravel Morrison. But after handing Gary Hooper a gift-wrapped leveller from the spot after the break, Norwich grew in strength and won the game with two goals inside the final 18 minutes.

    I would love us to make it 3 Wins and 4 clean sheets in a row but I can see us losing tonight , don't know why but I just can for some reason .... Hope I`m proved wrong and we do go out and get all 3 points and another clean sheet  scarf 

    I would keep with the same 11 that beat Villa with maybe starting Barriello first half and then Cole 2nd half !

    Tough for the carrot crunchers, and tough on my blood pressure till the last knockings, but we really do deserve the gods to smile on us for once - we have had to take so much crap this season! After the two cup stuffings I really was on the knuckle-bones of me arse, amazing how quickly things have improved. And we have a new talisman- Adrian San Miguel del Castillo, fuppin 'brilliant display! TENTH fercrissake!! I'm gobsmacked!
    But it ain't over till the fat lady sings - and this season it ain't over till a whole busload of fat ladies sing. Still a way to go yet, but a fuppin' brilliant three pints nevertheless.

    What a run we are on. Ten in four? Never would have thought.

    Still way too bunched up and still way too much time to go, but we are in very good position.

    Absolutely fantastic (set of) result, the team and big Sam deserve maximum respect for the effort and tenacity in digging out these results when the chips were down (two cup games) and luck (the messaging FA and Webb-minge) were out to get us.


    Important to realise it's only early February and whilst a good run can see you soar, over confidence can soon see us plummet again.

    Norwich the better team created clearer and better chances, Adrian, outstanding again, gave us the platform to win ugly, Diame changed the game, three more precious points

    Just got in ...... Had to get the bus home so left the game with 10 minutes to go at 0-0.  The driver on my second bus told me it finished 2-0.   A bit miffed to have missed the excitement and goals, but overall couldn't give a toss ...   cheesey grin  Whoooop whoooop whoooop!  Excellent set of results. 8 for 0 against.  I am a little bit in love with Adrian  heart
