Matchups
Alpha
Knossos Minotaurs vs Dorset Stampede *ALPHA GAME OF THE DAY*
The Minotaurs edged a tough Yorkshire Knights side last week, and the tail end of their schedule doesn't relent as they visit the Dorset Stampede. Dorset narrowly lost to Vice City last week - this should be an interesting matchup.
Prediction: Knossos 27-14
Moncuq Beserker Trolls vs Rennes Corsairs
Rennes need to win to keep playoff hopes alive, but they face a monstrous Montcuq side intent on securing homefield advantage.
Prediction: Montcuq 37-9
Vice City Crack Whores vs Hamburg Likedeeler
SingleSam must fancy his chances of going 15-1 and securing the #1 seed. Hamburg might be out of the playoffs, but will present a potential stumbling block for the Whores.
Prediction: Vice City 38-7
Yorkshire Knights vs Messina Blazers
Yorkshire must be tired of losing, and they should bounce back from a negative 3 game streak. Messina know their post-season fate, whilst Yorkshire play for seeding.
Prediction: Yorkshire 27-6
Seville Naranjas vs Ahlen Aces
Seville must also fancy their chances of winning out, as they face a Ahlen side losing with dignity. Will the Naranjas take this game easy, or use the opportunity to run up the score?
Prediction: Seville 113-3
Black Watch vs Barcelona Razorbacks
On a 5 game win streak, and facing a despondent Barca side, the Watch have crept up the table and have an outside chance of a homefield seeding. They should roll this game against a Razorbacks side with underachieving talent.
Prediction: Watch 37-6
Fareham Demon vs Dublin Destroyers
The Demons need just one win to secure a playoff berth, and should achieve that against a Dublin side that must be looking to rebuild next season. Fareham could slip up here, but Dublin look unlikely to stop the potent passing attack.
Prediction: Fareham 53-7
London Royals vs Vatican City Popes
Playing for pride and position in the lower half here, London hould win and stay safe from the drop.
Prediction: London 86-3
Zeta
Stirling Crusaders vs Berlin Thunder
Significant for both teams, this game could decide whether Berlin achieve a playoff place, and where Stirling are seeded. The Crusaders look like a real championship contenders right now.
Prediction: Stirling 33-10
Spaniard Quebrantaguesos vs Turin Blue Jays
The Blue Jays face the Bone Breakers, in what everyone expect to be a whitewash - Spaniard look to retain the top seeding, before going into a tough week 16 match.
Prediction: Spaniard 52-7
Munchen The Fearless Lion vs St Michael Blicas
'Everyone's favourite underdogs,' St Michael, better be good at funerals - this is where their playoff hopes die.
Prediction: Munchen 39-10
Wales Whales vs Bath Killer Bees *ZETA GAME OF THE DAY*
#3 meet #4 - in what appears to be a closely matched game. The Killer Bees are reeling after a surprise loss to Antwerp last week, can they steel their nerve and bounce back?
Prediction: Wales 24-21
Bergen Black Bears vs Lyon Loups *LFU*
With Bergen guaranteed the playoffs, Lyon hope they relax as they seek to fulfil their own post-season ambitions. The Bears aren't quite ready to hibernate just yet.
Prediction: Bergen 28-17
Yorkshire Rippers vs FF-FD Satellite
The Rippers stumbled last week, and hope to secure the playoffs with a win. FF-FD might not be big dogs, but they have a lot of fight - can they cause an upset?
Prediction: Yorkshire 27-13
Antwerp Jokers vs Copenhagen Armadillos
The Jokers pulled off the upset last game with a win over Bath, sustaining their dreams of the playoffs. They'll need to break an Armadillos side on a 3 game losing streak to keep those hopes alive any longer.
Prediction: Antwerp 17-12
Hjorring Rhions vs Glasgow Manglers
Hjorring know how to nosedive faster than an ailing Spitfire, and meet a Glasgow side moving up the table.
Prediction: Glasgow 14-9
