Compton to retain PLRC?

Premier League Riders' Champion Andre Compton admits it will feel strange riding against Sheffield team mate Sean Wilson when he defends his crown on Sunday (6pm).

The top rider from every Premier League club will do battle at Owlerton Stadium in the showpiece event - and Compton is included as a wild-card behind Wilson in Sheffield's rider averages.

Compton said: "It will be very strange riding against Sean and nobody needs me to tell them how hard it will be to beat him. Me and Sean are good mates, we talk a lot during the week and it's great to be in the same team as him."

"I know how much it would mean to him to win the title, but I want to retain it and I'm sure we'll enjoy some great racing on the night. Hopefully the fans will enjoy it."
