Bristol City climbed in the play-off places of the championship after he had beat 2-1 2-1 in Ashton Gate on Friday.
Mark Sykes opened the score for the Robins only six minutes before Nahki Wells doubled their advantage with a low finish 17 minutes later.
Borja Sainz, who hit the woodwork for the visitors in the first half, gave Johannes Hoff Thorup's side a lifeline with still eight minutes to play, but Bristol City held up for the victory.
The Robins, with 57 points, rose to fifth place after catching up Coventry City and West Brom, who get the chance to go back when they win on Saturday.
In the meantime, the defeat is a blow to Norwich's promotion while they are 12th with 49 points.
