Well, that's two games down without Grant Holt with one to go and despite recording yet another victory against Hartlepool last weekend, boy will they be pleased to have their skipper back.
Norwich have done excellently to keep on the winning trail without their talisman but his absence was all too evident on Saturday, when, in truth, City struggled to get over the line.
Holt leads by example and the Cumbrian is a significant presence in the forward line; nine times out of 10, you fancy him to get on the end of a Simon Lappin or Russell Martin cross.
And while Cody McDonald managed to nod home the Canaries' first-half equaliser, they lacked a 'big man' and all the benefits that come with it.
But, to be fair to McDonald, he has taken his chance well after coming off the bench to grab City's winner at Walsall. He certainly deserved his start last Saturday.
Having spoken to him at Colney, Cody seems like a great lad - a willing learner and a positive person.
With the form that Messrs Holt, Martin and Hoolahan have been in this season, he's barely had a sniff.
But McDonald has never once moaned, instead placing his trust in Paul Lambert to make the best choice for the team.
And the City manager's decision to hand the Essex boy a start was certainly the correct one. He covered every blade of grass and of course, popped up with that vital goal.
Oli Johnson, who Lambert had opted for at Walsall, was back on the bench and while the 22-year-old certainly has plenty of talent, I don't believe he's ready for a starting berth just yet.
The Yorkshireman has only been playing professional football for five minutes and when coming off the bench, with his fresh legs causing tiring defenders all sorts of problems, he can do some real damage.
Tomorrow sees City hit the road again and for me, they are facing their toughest test for quite some time, with a trip to play-off chasing Millwall.
Kenny Jackett's men are in great form and, as I predicted some time ago, the Lions are having a strong second half to the season.
But while the pessimist in you feels that City's unbeaten run must come to an end sometime, with more than 3,000 Norwich fans set to make the trip to South East London, you certainly wouldn't back against another Canary success.
