Norwich vs Arsenal
England – Premier League
Date: Sunday, 1 December 2019
Kick-off at 14:00 UK / 15:00 CET
Venue: Carrow Road (Norwich).

Arsenal travel to Norwich City as Freddie Ljungberg takes charge of the club for the first time.

Unai Emery was sacked on Friday after guiding the club to seven successive games without a win – their worst record in over 25 years – and

Daniel Farke’s Norwich, however, are finally looking up again after ending a miserable streak of their own with victory against Everton last weekend.

They famously upset Manchester City earlier in the season and will relish the chance to wreak havoc on another Premier League giant at Carrow Road.

Arsenal interim manager Freddie Ljungberg made five changes to the team who lost 2-1 to Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday in Unai Emery’s final match in charge.
