Norwich vs Sunderland always conjures up the 1985 Milk Cup final for me. Mick Channon up front for Norwich, and the winner going in off a defenders chest. 2nd-half highlights of that game (when almost all the key incidents happened) here:-

If I remember right both sides got relegated from Division 1 at the end of that season...
Today's game is arguably the biggest meeting of the clubs since then, give or take an FA Cup Semi-Final. It certainly feels like the most important single game this weekend. A Norwich win relegates Villa and leaves Sunderland and Newcastle almost certain to join them. Anything else and it's still in the balance.
