Manchester United defender Jonny Evans insists that he and his teammates are prepared for a battle with Norwich City when they travel to Carrow Road on Sunday.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side will be looking to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat to Ajax in the Europa League on Thursday.
The Northern Irish centre-back has conceded that the Canaries will be a different proposition with a physical approach expected, particularly from their striker Grant Holt. However, the 24-year-old says the Red Devils are prepared.
"Holt is a big strong boy, I think he has played in every division. He will be pretty fired up for a real battle," Evans told Sky Sports News.
"It will certainly be a lot different to playing against Ajax. In the Premier League you are used to challenges, when it is a bit more rough. But that is what you have to be prepared for.
"Norwich have done well since they got promoted, it seems like a pretty tough place to go and Paul Lambert has got them working really hard.
"It is a game their fans and players will have been looking forward to all season. We did the job on them at Old Trafford. I am sure it will be different down there."
Manchester United beat Norwich 2-0 in the return fixture at Old Trafford in October.
