Norwich City travel to take on Brighton & Hove Albion at Withdean Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Canaries will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The last time the two teams met at Brighton & HA was just over four years ago, in October 2005, as the visitors ran out cosy 1 - 3 winners in a Championship match.
