Leeds Force not taking strugglers Plymouth lightly
For while Leeds have suffered four defeats in a row, Plymouth are the only BBL team still waiting for a win this season.
The two teams meet tonight (Friday) at the Carnegie Sports Centre (7.30), and history is on Plymouth’s side, having won all three meetings between these teams in the BBL.

“Our main focus in games is to make it as hard as we can on the defensive end and the offence will come naturally, and we will apply this in the game on Friday.”
Sheffield Sharks are also on home territory, then they welcome Manchester Giants to the EIS (7.30).

Sharks forward Patrick Horstmann: “We need to become more consistent and improve on the defensive end.
“Manchester are a talented team that have many good scorers. We need to play good defence for 40 minutes and control the tempo of the game to have a chance to win.
