Norwich City have received a boost ahead of their Sky Bet Championship clash at home to Preston North End today - Alex Pritchard is back in the match day squad.

The attacking midfielder has been absent for a while but returned to training a week and a half ago and has been deemed ready to take a space on the bench.

There are plenty of players out injured for Norwich at the moment.

Long-term absentees Matt Jarvis and Steven Naismith have been joined on the sidelines by Marley Watkins, Harrison Reed, Timm Klose, James Husband and Tom Trybull.

This means that Alex Pritchard's return to fitness is even more of a boost for the Canaries.

Today's game sees Preston manager Alex Neil return to Carrow Road but Norwich have a depleted squad for that game.

Here are how Norwich fans reacted to the news that Alex Pritchard was fit to make the bench today.
