Mid-table duo Norwich and Fulham meet on New Year's Eve at Carrow Road and neither manager has fresh injury concerns ahead of the tie.

There are no fresh injury worries for either side as Norwich and Fulham meet at Carrow Road for their final game of 2011.

Paul Lambert may welcome back Kyle Naughton at right-back while Marc Tierney is unlikely to return after missing out on Tuesday's defeat to Tottenham.

For the visitors, Martin Jol may opt for an unchanged side after they picked up an impressive point at Chelsea in the West London derby last time out.

Kerim Frei could see his place taken by Dixon Etuhu if Jol opts for a more physical presence in the Cottagers midfield.

Both sides have picked up two wins, two draws and two losses in their last six and are just two points apart in the Premier League.

The Canaries are strongest at home, picking up four wins, while Fulham have won just once on the road at Wigan in October.

Last time these two met at Carrow Road was in 2004 when veteran Andrew Cole scored the only goal in the seventh minute to give Fulham the win.

Current Form:

Norwich: WLWDDL
Fulham: DWLWLD

Possible lineups:

Norwich: Ruddy; Naughton, Martin, Drury, De Laet; Crofts, Hoolahan, Fox, Surman; Morison, Holt

Fulham: Stockdale; Kelly, Hangeland, Senderos, Riise; Etuhu, Murphy, Dempsey; Dembele, Ruiz, Sa

Sports Mole says: 2-2
