Coventry boss Mark Robins has the luxury of a fully-fit squad for the first leg of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy Northern Area final against Crewe.

The Sky Blues came through Friday night's dramatic 2-1 win over Sheffield United with no new injury problems.

Callum Ball returned to the bench following a foot injury while David Bell is available to make his first appearance of the season after recovering from hip and foot problems.

City are expecting the game to be played in front of a sold-out Ricoh Arena and Robins is hopeful the 30,000 fans will make a lot of noise.

"I hope the atmosphere will be electric for 90 minutes," he told the Coventry Telegraph. "The fans will get behind the players and what's important is that they stick with the team."
