Leicester Riders head-coach Rob Paternostro has said he can draw many comparisons between his side and their next opponents the Sheffield Sharks.

The two sides meet in the BBL Championship at the John Sandford Centre on 1 November.

Paternostro told BBC Radio Leicester: "They have a new coach and I expect them to be around our position in the league all season."

Leicester's Rod Wellington is doubtful for the game with a knee injury.
