LEICESTER will be without Connor Mountain for their trip to Newcastle on Sunday (4pm).
Mountain escaped serious injury when he looped at the start of Heat 1 in the home clash with Plymouth, but he still took a heavy knock due to the landing.
As he is unable to ride at Brough Park, the Watling JCB Lions will operate rider replacement against the Championship’s basement side.
The Diamonds bring in Ricky Wells and Kasper Andersen to guest for Bradley Wilson-Dean and Paul Starke, and they operate rider replacement for Matthew Wethers.
Lions fans not making the trip to Tyneside today can still follow the action via live streaming on the British Speedway Network: https://watch.britishspeedway.co.uk .
NEWCASTLE: Ricky Wells, Kasper Andersen, James Wright, Max Clegg, Matthew Wethers R/R, Lee Complin, Jack Smith.
LEICESTER: Nick Morris, Connor Mountain R/R, Richie Worrall, Joe Thompson, Kyle Howarth, Jason Edwards, Dan Thompson.
