Team News: Chris Hughton pairs Kei Kamara, Grant Holt in attack

Canaries manager Chris Hughton partners Grant Holt with Kei Kamara in attack for Norwich's match with bottom-of-the-table Reading at Carrow Road.

Kei Kamara and Grant Holt will continue their forward partnership for Norwich City when Reading travel to Carrow Road this afternoon.

Chris Hughton has previously been reluctant to play the two strikers together, but has named them both up front as the Canaries go in search of a win that would all but secure their Premier League safety.

Hughton does make two changes, though, with Elliott Bennett and Javier Garrido recalled in place of Steven Whittaker and Alexander Tettey.

Reading are bottom of the table, 10 points adrift of 17th-placed Aston Villa, and realistically need to win today to increase their slim chances of avoiding the drop.

Royals boss Nigel Adkins makes just one alteration from the starting XI that drew 0-0 with Liverpool last weekend, with Nick Blackman preferred to Noel Hunt in attack.

Norwich: Bunn; R.Martin, Bassong, Turner, Garrido; Johnson, Howson, Snodgrass, E.Bennett; Kamara, Holt

Reading:McCarthy; Gunter, Mariappa, Morrison, Kelly; Karacan, Guthrie, McCleary, McAnuff; Blackman, Pogrebnyak
