Leicester Riders take on British Basketball League Championship leaders Newcastle Eagles on Friday looking for their fourth straight league win.

Riders moved into fifth place after their 94-83 win against Scottish Rocks at Kelvin Hall on Sunday.

Riders head coach Rob Paternostro told BBC Radio Leicester: "It's the type of game you look forward to being involved in, and the players are up for it."

Leicester have a home game against Guildford Heat on Saturday.
