Coventry City manager Mark Robins has said Burton Albion are a good team as the Sky Blues travel to the Pirelli Stadium tomorrow.
City supporters have bought all the available tickets for the game which comes at the end of a week when the club ended its interest in three cup competitions.
Speaking to the media this morning, Robins said: “They are a good team, plenty of movement and rotation and plenty of quality and there are some good players in that squad.
“They’ve just come down from two seasons in the Championship, which they were disappointed about, because they only got relegated on the last day of the season.
“It’s a major disappointment when that happens, and I don’t know whether Nigel has come to terms with it now, but I know he was very down beat with the circumstances.
“He was majorly successful player and been a successful manager and he’s done well there and even though he got relegated, everyone would agree they are punching well above their weight being in the Championship.
“When he took over, they were two or three divisions below and then they worked their way up. Burton Albion is well supported and well run, I think I is a great football story.”
