Knossos Minotaurs vs Fareham Demons
Despite their loss against a boosted Black Watch side, Knossos come into this game as favourites against a Fareham side recently edged by heavyweights Vice City. This should be a good match as Knossos' running game takes on the aerial attack of Fareham. Knossos have the stouter D, and should win a tough game.
Prediction: Knossos 17-10
Montcuq Beserker Trolls vs Yorkshire Knights
Whilst the Trolls contine to roll, the Knights present another tough challenge. Current form says the Trolls should dominate, but I wouldn't bet against Yorkshire causing an upset.
Prediction: Montcuq 27-13
Vice City Crack Whores vs London Royals
Royals and Crack Whores just don't mix, and this game is no different. Vice City outclass the Royals, whose hopes of making the playoffs have all but disappeared.
Prediction: Vice City 63-3
Seville Naranjas vs Barcelona Razorbacks
Seville enter the easier part of their schedule, with Barcelona being one of the tougher teams they are left to face. The Naranjas may fancy their chances of winning out, but Barca have the talent to cause problems.
Prediction: Seville 30-7
Black Watch vs Dorset Stampede *Alpha Game of the Day*
Edges Trolls/Knights for GOTD, as both teams need a big victory here to show their caliber for the playoffs. Both teams run first, and have tough D-units, but Black Watch come into the game high after a win over formerly unbeaten Knossos.
Prediction: Black Watch 54-17
Hamburg Likedeeler vs Rennes Corsairs
Hamburg are challenging for one of the lower playoff spots, and come up against a tough Rennes team who cause problems for top level teams. My gut says Rennes, but the generator says otherwise.
Prediction: Hamburg 21-7
Messina Blazers vs Dublin Destroyers
Messina face a Dublin team on the verge of relegation - and should come up trumps with another 'W' if they are to keep any slim playoff hopes alive.
Prediction: Messina 24-6
Belfast Super Crues vs Ahlen Aces
Both teams without wins - a clash of relegation prospects, the result here could have huge implications at the bottom of the league. Both teams have changed ownership and are rebuilding.
Fact of the day: Both teams have scored just 3 points between them thus far.
Prediction: Belfast 3-0
Zeta
Stirling Crusaders vs Bergen Black Bears *Zeta Game of the Day*
The Crusaders march on after a victory over the Blicas, and face an angry Bergen team with a point to prove.
Prediction: Stirling 34-10
Spaniard Quebrantaguesos vs FF-FD Satellite
FF-FD lost to Glasgow last week - Spaniard are much better, but the Satellites like a brawl. Still, Spaniard should fly.
Prediction: Spaniard 47-10
Munchen The Fearless Lion vs Yorkshire Rippers
Tight game - the Rippersare improving, but face a seasoned Munchen side reeling from 2 losses.
Prediction: Munchen 21-14
Wales Whales vs Berlin Thunder
Wales continued to prove their caliber in Zeta with a good win over Munchen, whilst Berlin went down to a good Bath team. Wales seem to have the greater talent here.
Prediction: Wales 40-9
Bath Killer Bees vs Glasgow Manglers
Glasgow got their first victory last week, unfortunately, this game looks like it will send them back to losing ways. Bath's sting proves lethal here.
Prediction: Bath 31-6
Lyon Loups *LFU* vs Turin Blue Jays
Turin are improving, and have narrowly lost their last games. Still, Lyon look like they prove too tough, and stay in the playoff hunt.
Prediction: Lyon 21-17
Antwerp Jokers vs St Michael Blicas
Underacheiving Antwerp face a Blicas side with a lot of fight. Antwerp look like they have the experience and caliber to pass this test, and stay in the race for a meaningful post-season.
Prediction: Antwerp 17-10
Copenhagen Armadillos vs Hjorring Rhinos
Neither team looks like making the playoffs, so this game looks like it will be played for pride. Only time you'll ever see an Armadillo take down a Rhino.
Prediction: Copenhagen 17-9
