Arsenal entertain Norwich, after beating Blackburn 0-1 at St. Ewoods Park .

Thierry Henry is still likely to be out for this match, Dennis Bergkamp may start as Freddie Ljunberg after picking up his ankle injury in the warm up for the Blackburn match .Robert Pires looks likely to recover from flu in time for the match though .Pascal Cygan also may figure after recovering from his thigh injury .

Arsenal beat Norwich 1-4 in August , when Huckerby scored a penalty which make-shift Arsenal Centre-back Justin Hoyte had conceded.Thierry Herny scored a rare header, Pires and Reyes tap ins, and a last minute Dennis Bergkamp blast to make it 1-4 .

I predict a 2-1 Arsenal on Saturday.Hopefullly, I can get another spot-on .

Predicted line up :

Lehmann
Lauren Toure Senderos Cole
Fabregas Flamini Vieira Pires
Reyes Van Persie

There are internationals this Saturday. We play Norwich on the 2nd of April and since when did they call Blackburn's ground St.Ewood's Park? :wink:

I prefer Fabregas in the middle, with Vieira. If Freddie is fit, he should be on the right, if not, I wouldn't mind seeing Bergkamp up front and Reyes on the right, or Eboue there instead.

And I reckon we're gearing up for a few big performances - we've ground out a few recently, the confidence must be coming back. 4-0. Reyes 2, Pires and van Persie

A bit early for this, isn't it? Who knows what injuries we could pick up during this international period...

ER why would we play Fabregas on the right when we probably have Freddie back?
And also could be a first start for Gilberto whos already played 2 full reserve games and 65 mins for one.

3-1 to the Arsenal!! Norwich did not look like scoring against bull-ton, but I feel our clean sheet run's gonna come to an end!

I felt like this about two months ago... then we got ****ted by Man United at home. We're loose cannons this season, I'm afraid, or just not good enough.

Well, if we were playing Utd. again, I'd be less confident. But I reckon we've got it in us to **** some minnows like Norwich for 6.

And Kanu? Doesn't he play for WBA?

Arsenal 4 - 0 Norwich

Our defence has been solid the past several games. I dont see Norwich breaking through us.

Even with a depleted, young squad last week, we were dangerous. Reyes was awesome, Van Persie was quality and even Fabregas was dangerous. Norwich shouldn't be a problem, especially with a more experienced squad than last weeks.

Reyes (x2)
Ljungberg
Flamini (for a rare goal)
