CHANCE! And again, Villa escape! Bunn makes a brave stop at the feet of Mbokani and the hosts eventually clear. It's not going to be Norwich's day.
86'
Villa have 11 men behind the ball now as Norwich throw caution to the wind in search of a goal. Surely too late for Alex Neil's side though.

Aston Villa
Okore rises highest to clear the danger and Villa's clean sheet is still intact.

Norwich City
There is a real sense of nervousness inside Villa Park as Norwich win yet another corner.

CHANCE! Norwich are denied once again - this time heroic defending from Gil saves the hosts as Mbokani thought he had scored.
80'
Norwich City
OFF THE LINE! Bunn is all over the place and Norwich should score but fantastic defending from Okore denies them on the line! Villa are fighting for their lives here.

Norwich make their final change and it's a final roll of the dice from Alex Neil - Matt Jarvis replaces Naismith.
78'
Aston Villa
Agbonlahor finds the ball in space after beating his marker but he's unable to pick out a team mate as Martin intercepts.
76'
Norwich City
Naismith is fortunate not to be booked now as he quite clearly stamps on Bacuna, clearly out of frustration. The referee didn't spot it.

YELLOW CARD! It's not been a great afternoon for Klose whose deflected header helped Villa to an opener and now he's picked up a booking for a rash tackle on Agbonlahor.
74'
Norwich City
Time is running out for the visitors who are set to slip into the bottom three for the first time since the opening weekend of the season.
72'
Norwich City
WIDE! Another chance for Norwich goes begging - a low shot from Brady could go anywhere but none of his team mates can get a foot on it and the effort goes wide.

CHANCE! Bacuna does well to wriggle the ball past Brady but he can't keep his effort down from close range. That would have been game, set and match.

Aston Villa
The Villa fans are in great spirits and why not - they're just over 20 minutes from just a third victory this season.
