Marc Steutel will be looking to mastermind another Eagles victory tonight
(GARY FORSTER)
Steutel has warned his Newcastle Eagles to be wary of a Sheffield side on a revenge mission when the two old rivals square up in a crucial Super League Basketball Trophy group game tonight.The teams meet for the fourth time this season, with the Eagles fresh from last Friday's superb 80-68 SLB Championship victory against the B. Braun Sharks in the Steel City.
The Sharks hold a 2-1 advantage in the league over their Friday-night hosts, but perhaps that road win seven days ago will give Newcastle a slight edge on their home court this evening.
