The Sky Blues boss has been pleased with the response from the team following his appointment in January.
"We're defending well in the last 10 minutes of games when the opposition have been having pressure," said Adams.
"But that's what we've got to do week in and week out. We have to make sure we keep going and work hard."
The City manager will have keeper Ian Bennett back from suspension but will not have Robert Page available to face his former club due to a gentleman's agreement between the two clubs.
