Norwich finished sixth in the Championship last season, losing to Leeds United in the semi-finals of the playoffs, and they are aiming to make the top six once again, but it will be a real battle due to the quality of the teams currently above them.

Makhtar Gueye's first-half header and Todd Cantwell's penalty kick in the second half were enough for John Eustace's side to end a three-match losing run, which had seen them drop out of the division's top six.

Starved of success in the FA Cup since winning the trophy for the second and most recent time in 1938, Preston have at least gone one better than their third-round exit to Chelsea in 2024, sending Charlton Athletic packing courtesy of a Milutin Osmajic brace in the third round.
