Kevin Nolan: 'Notts County must expect a reaction from Coventry City'

Notts County boss Kevin Nolan has warned that Coventry City will be desperate to bounce back from their 6-2 home loss to Yeovil Town when they come to Meadow Lane on Saturday.

The Magpies, who sit fifth in the League Two table, will be taking on a side just two places and two points behind them.

In addition, the Sky Blues - who beat Notts 3-0 in the season opener at the Ricoh Arena - boast the best defensive record in the division with 38 goals conceded in 40 matches.

"You have to expect a reaction from them after the result they had on Monday," Nolan told the official Notts site.

"Mark Robins is a good manager and a lovely fella. He and his players will make sure they get a response because they will be hurting.

"But I want a reaction from my players after losing at Accrington on Monday and not winning our last home game.

"Coventry have been fantastic away from home and still have one of the best defensive records in the league so I expect it to be a tight game.

"We are going to need people to be confident, consistent and patient because our opportunities may not come until the last 10 minutes."
