Norwich City head coach David Wagner has been speaking to the media ahead of Sunday's Championship play-off semi-final first leg against Leeds United at Carrow Road (12:00 GMT).

Here are some of the key points:

  • Defender Shane Duffy has trained normally all week, Wagner indicated he will be available for selection this weekend. Duffy was arrested and charged with a drink-driving offence on Monday

  • Striker Ashley Barnes will miss the first-leg with calf injury, but Christian Fassnacht is back after missing the Birmingham game

  • Wagner says Sunday is 'another big game' of many his team have had in recent months. "We are used to it", he says

  • On Leeds United: "There are no secrets - they know more or less everything about us, we know more or less everything about them"

  • Wagner says he is happy for the Canaries to be classed as the underdogs in the two-legged game against Leeds

  • Wagner on his play-off experience "If you've done it and been successful, you are quite confident." Wagner led Huddersfield to promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs in 2017
