Edinburgh Monarchs won the first leg 48-41 and Lynn team manager Rob Lyon thinks the team can lift the trophy after the second leg.

"We did a lot of hard work on Friday, keeping the score relatively close at Edinburgh and we're quite confident we can turn the score around," he told BBC Radio Norfolk.

World Under-21 champion Darcy Ward made a welcome return for the Stars in the first leg of the final after a back injury and scored paid 11.

"It's good for team morale, he's had a tremendous year. The team spirit was superb," said Lyon.

Stars are urging fans to go along to the Norfolk Arena in Saddlebow Road to support their team in the final meeting of the season.

"It would be a wonderful achievement to win the treble. Everybody's played their part this season and hopefully it'll be a great night for King's Lynn once again," said Lyon.

The Knockout Cup final will be broadcast live on BBC Radio Norfolk on Wednesday from 1900 GMT.
