Newcastle boss George English expects his side to pick up where they left off in the second leg of the Premier Trophy final at Birmingham on Wednesday.

Diamonds lead the Brummies by 22 points after Saturday's 58-36 victory at Newcastle Stadium and English is backing his side to finish the job.

"We're not going to get over-confident as that would be a fatal mistake," English said.

"We are going into that match the same as any other - we need to win."

English added: "Twenty-two points is an excellent margin to carry down to the second leg at Birmingham on Wednesday night."
