Norwich City v Spurs: Will Hughton or AVB suffer a cup hangover?
Norwich City were embarrassed on Saturday by non-league Luton Town in the FA Cup but they will be in great company this evening when they entertain Spurs, who themselves bowed out of the competition at the hands of Leeds United.
Chris Hughton's men became the first top flight side to lose to non-league opposition in the FA Cup for 24 years. Make no mistake about it, the Canaries will be hurting and desperate to get back to winning ways. But Spurs will be in the same boat, and they have their top four dreams to hold on to.
Spurs were dumped out of the Capital One Cup by Norwich earlier this season, but will lightening strike twice to dent AVB's hopes of finishing in the Champions League places or will the visitors pile the misery on the hosts, who are not out of the relegation picture just yet?
Norwich City v Spurs; Kick Off 7.45pm January 30 2013
