Norwich City v Palace

Carrow Road, Tuesday 7.45pm

James Vaughan

Team news

Crystal Palace welcome back on-loan Everton striker James Vaughan after he served his three-match ban.

Centre half Claude Davis starts the first of his four-game suspension for his red card against Millwall on Saturday.

Midfield duo Darren Ambrose (leg), Neil Danns (knee) plus Adam Barrett (foot) and Lee Hills (knee) are sidelined. Full-back David Wright (calf) is in contention.

Norwich defender Elliott Ward is suspended after picking up five bookings this season. Left-back Adam Drury is doubtful with a calf injury.

Quotes

Roy Hodgson

"We have got players with ability to score goals coming back into the squad which is encouraging.

"James Vaughan is available tonight, Sean Scannell will take part in a reserve game tomorrow and Darren Ambrose is starting to join in training.

"With Darren we have got to take it day-by-day but he has progressed the last few weeks and is joining in."
