The Foxes fell to a 6-1 reverse to the Robins at the LCI Rail Stadium on Tuesday but they can recover immediately with the Premier League 2 encounter with Adi Viveash’s Blues at St George’s Park (1.05pm kick-off).
Beaglehole has hinted there may be changes to his starting line-up following the defeat in Gloucestershire but says whoever plays will be expected to put in a better showing as City look to get back to winning ways.
He told LCFC TV: “We want a positive reaction. There'll be changes in the team, I'm sure.
“There are players who deserve a chance and it'll be against great opposition. Technically, they'll be very, very good.
“You've still got to do the basics right. It'll be a different challenge but still a very big one.
“They're an excellent side and it's the same challenge as our first-team have on the Saturday.”
