Norwich City are hoping to make it second time lucky as they attempt to overcome League One Bristol Rovers in take two of their FA Cup third round clash. 

A 1-1 draw between the sides earlier this month has set up this evening's replay at the Memorial Ground with Premier League leaders Liverpool awaiting the victors at Anfield in round four.

Ashley Barnes opened the scoring in the Carrow Road clash, tapping in after Onel Hernandez's cutback inside the opening 15 minutes. Ex-Ipswich man Grant Ward netted a stunning equaliser after some lapse defending from City to earn the League One side a deserved replay.

Since, Norwich have beat Hull 2-1 at the MKM Stadium on Friday night and David Wagner will use this game to provide opportunities to some of his fringe players amid a busy Championship schedule.

Striker Josh Sargent is expected to be left in Norfolk as they manage his fitness after a return from a lengthy ankle injury that kept him sidelined between August and December. Captain Grant Hanley is another option to be rested after limping out of the original tie with a back cramp.

Jacob Sorensen is in line for minutes and others occupying the periphery of City's squad are likely to be given the nod as Wagner seeks to balance competitiveness with fitness.

Bristol Rovers have sold out the Memorial Stadium in anticipation of reaching the fourth round for the first time since 2008.

Ex-City striker Chris Martin has added incentive to deliver a performance against his former side tonight, with the play-offs now looking like an uphill battle after their defeat to Barnsley at the weekend.

Matt Taylor has called on Rovers fans to unleash '90 minutes of hell' onto Norwich this evening as they attempt to inflict an upset to tee up a clash with Liverpool next weekend.

Norwich are searching for their first FA Cup third round replay win since they beat fourth-tier Exeter at Carrow Road in 1990. The last six replays at this stage of the competition have ended in defeat for City, the last of which was a 5-3 penalties loss to Chelsea in 2018.

This game will go to extra time and penalties if it ends in a stalemate - both sides will be keen to finish the job inside 90 minutes.
