Angus Gunn - Heroic in loss Gunn made seven saves and two clearances during Friday's 2-0 loss to Southampton.

Impact Gunn was absolutely heroic Friday, and though his team gave him no support and little defensive help, he still kept the match close. Tim Krul is healthy once more, but Gunn is in flying form and seems eager to hold onto the starting job. Next up is a clash with Brentford, where Gunn will likely be tested once more.

Kenny McLean - Quiet in defeat McLean sent in four inaccurate crosses during Friday's 2-0 loss to Southampton.

Impact McLean was absolutely dreadful with his limited opportunity, failing to really threaten much despite the plethora of crosses he sent in. The midfielder just isn't much of a fantasy option as Norwich continue to struggle. A Saturday clash with Brentford next time out doesn't bode well for Norwich or McLean.

Billy Gilmour - Eight crosses in loss Gilmour sent in eight crosses (three accurate) during Friday's 2-0 loss to Southampton.

Impact Gilmour was still the most convincing creative option for Norwich despite the very disappointing defeat. The midfielder has some solid fantasy upside as he dominates the midfield chances for Norwich. That said the team is poor and are prime candidates for relegation, lowering Gilmour's fantasy ceiling. Next up is a tough clash with Brentford on Saturday.

Lukas Rupp - Returns to bench Rupp (hamstring) is on the bench for Friday's clash with Southampton.

Impact Rupp is on the bench as expected after making a full return to training from his hamstring injury. The midfielder will hope to test the hamstring on the pitch with a late cameo. That said it's unlikely he will be rushed back into any major playing time.

Tim Krul - On bench Friday Krul (shoulder) is on the bench for Friday's clash with Southampton.

Impact Krul is on the bench Friday as he makes way for Angus Gunn, who has been solid in relief. There is no reason for Krul to rush back until Gunn's form seems to be sinking. Krul should be available once more against Brentford on Saturday.

MATCHDAY: Bottom sides Norwich, Levante look for wins

Southampton is one of the form teams in the Premier League and takes a five-match unbeaten run into a home match against last-place Norwich

Lukas Rupp - Back in training Rupp (hamstring) has been training and could be an option for Friday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Dean Smith.

Impact Rupp has been out since early December because of a hamstring injury, so his return would be a nice boost to the side. That said, he'll likely remain a backup in the midfield with just five starts to his name. He and Jacob Sorensen, who are both returning from injury, will likely take spots on the bench in the near future.

FEBRUARY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Jakob Lungi Sorensen - Back in training Sorensen (knee) is back in training and could be an option as soon as Friday against Southampton, according to manager Dean Smith.

Impact Sorensen has missed the last three matches with a knee issue, but it looks like he should be an option again. Of course, while he started prior to injury, the health of guys like Billy Gilmour and Mathias Normann means that Sorensen will be on the bench going forward.

Andrew Omobamidele - Remains without tiemline Omobamidele is still struggling with a back issue and is out for the unforeseeable future, according to manager Dean Smith. "He's still struggling so we expect him to be out for th...

Impact It's unfortunate for Omobamidele, who has been out since early December and hasn't really been completely healthy for an extended period this season. While he's a backup defender, he's had no chances to earn a bigger role under manager Dean Smith.

Tim Krul - Could be option Friday Krul (shoulder) has been training and could be an option Friday against Southampton, according to manager Dean Smith. "He's asking the question of us, it's now a decision for mysel...

Impact Krul was the No. 1 to open the season and has 19 starts under his belt, but Angus Gunn has had some good performances in his absence. It's still expected that Krul will be starting when available, though he may not be pushed into the XI Friday for his first match back.

FEBRUARY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Josh Sargent - Tallies assist during loss Sargent provided an assist, took one shot and made three clearances during Saturday's 3-1 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Sargent provided his first assist of the season, which is another good sign after he scored two goals to matches ago. His next chance to start is during Friday's trip to Southampton.

FEBRUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Milot Rashica - Scores against Liverpool Rashica scored a goal, took two shots (one on goal) and drew three fouls during Saturday's 3-1 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Rashica gave Norwich a shock lead with a deflected shot in the 48th minute. It was short lived as Liverpool came back with three goals from their front three. This was his first goal of the season and he'll look to add to that tally during Friday's trip to Southampton.

FEBRUARY 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Angus Gunn - Concedes three goals during loss Gunn conceded three goals and made four saves during Saturday's 3-1 loss to Liverpool.

Impact Gunn continues to see starting minutes while Tim Krul is sidelined, however Saturday was a tough outing as Liverpool came back from 1-0 down with three second-half goals. Gunn's next chance to start will come during Friday's trip to Southampton.

Ozan Kabak - Available going forward Kabak (illness) is available for Saturday's trip to Liverpool after playing 90 minutes in a training fixture Tuesday, according to manager Dean Smith.

Impact Kabak is an option again and could take the spot of Ben Gibson in the starting XI. It'd be a fun task for him Saturday because he came into Liverpool last season and started nine matches for them, the number he's currently on with Norwich this season. Of course, a trip to Liverpool rarely goes well for opposing defenders.

Lukas Rupp - Working through recovery process Rupp (hamstring) is taking the next steps in his recovery but won't be ready to face Liverpool on Saturday. Manager Dean Smith told reporters, "Lukas Rupp is back in rehabilitation...

Impact Rupp has already missed the last eight matches due to his hamstring injury and remains on the shelf ahead of Saturday's clash with Liverpool. Even once cleared to return to action, the midfielder is unlikely to break into the starting XI considering he has featured just five times in 10 appearances this year.

FEBRUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tim Krul - Progressing in recovery Krul (shoulder) is stepping up his recovery but has yet to return to full training. Manager Dean Smith told reporters, "Tim Krul is progressing well. He's doing some ball work and...

Impact Krul will for sure miss his fourth straight contest due to his shoulder problem and likely could be sidelined even longer. Whenever the keeper is given the all-clear, he should be a lock to reclaim his spot between the sticks while Angus Gunn is relegated to a spot on the bench.

FEBRUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mathias Normann - Could crack starting XI Normann is expected to be in the mix for a spot in the starting XI against Crystal Palace on Saturday after manager Dean Smith told reporters, "Mathias had 60 minutes in the practi...

Impact Normann has come off the bench in his previous two contests, logging a combined 43 minutes in which he registered one tackle (won), one clearance and one interception. Even once restored to the starting XI, Normann is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value given his limited offensive upside.
