Vieira provides updates on McArthur and Tomkins for Norwich

Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira has provided an injury update on James McArthur and James Tomkins.

The Eagles will be facing Norwich City on Wednesday in their first Premier League match back since the winter break as they aim to follow up on their recent FA Cup victory against Hartlepool.

Crystal Palace could also be boosted by the return of two members of the squad, with Vieira providing positive injury updates during his recent press conference.

"Macca [James McArthur] has been training in the last couple of days with the team. James [Tomkins] as well. We have the majority of the players back now so that is good news," Vieira revealed.

McArthur has been out injured since November due to a hamstring tear, while Tomkins has missed the previous three matches because of a knock, which will make both of them welcome returns.

The Eagles are currently 13th in the Premier League table, but a victory could see them move into 10th, depending on other results.
