Adkins: Hoping to beat Leicester

The Iron have already beaten the likes of Newcastle, Sheffield United, Preston and Derby at home this season, but they are just a point above the relegation zone after four consecutive league defeats.

However, Adkins is confident his side can arrest their slide with victory against a Leicester side who are riding high in third place.

"We will give them a tough game, they'll make it hard for us too." Adkins told the club's official website.

"They are riding high and the division is very close and on any day anybody can beat anyone.

"We're looking forward to a cracking game, we're very positive at this club and even one victory can see us climb up from where we are."
