Orlando at Ohio

Ohio are fading and no one really knows why, on paper they have a great team but are losing a lot of close games.  If Ohio loses this then they are out of the playoffs, if Orlando loses they will be out of the playoffs practically.  Its a huge game for both teams, Ohio are on a downward spiral at the moment with 3 straight losses, they have to turn back the clock and get back to winning ways here.  Its a huge game and they need to win it.

New York at Mexico

The Aztecs narrowly lost last week but probably will feel the pressure has gone from them and might actually play better.  New York are playing very well at the moment, 2 straight wins and are 6-4 but are 2-3 on the road.  Mexico are 5-0 at home and in front of 100,000 fans at the Azteca stadium they should just edge the powerful NY Knights who have put together quite an all-star packed team.  One to watch for next year.

Birmingham at Raleigh-Durham

The Skyhawks narrowly lost to the Machine last week but are still in the playoff hunt, they would need a win here though but face 8-2 Birmingham.  Birmingham are 3-2 on the road this year so Raleigh stand a chance as they play very well at home.  We're going for the upset in this game as Raleigh have talent on offense, they have to just make sure their defense make enough plays.

Raleigh-Durham by 3

San Antonio at Sacramento

Tricky game for the Riders as the Surge can play some opponents close.  With a new offense the Surge struggled last week but should play better this week.  San Antonio are one of the surprise packages this year and at 5-5 with a 3 game winning streak they are looking good.  They need to keep winning though and will find this game tricky but should edge the Surge.

Amsterdam at Montreal

The Machine won a huge game last week but now face 10-0 Amsterdam.  If anyone can win this game its Danny Wuerrfel.  However Amsterdam might want revenge as they lost to them in the FWL Bowl a few years back and a defeat to Montreal could severely damage their playoff hopes.  Montreal have a huge advantage at home but Amsterdam are 10-0 and we cant bet against a 10-0 team.

Amsterdam by 7

Scotland at Rhein

The Claymores have had some very tricky games the last few weeks, Amsterdam, Austria, London and now Rhein.  Rhein are one of the surprise packages this year and are 6-4 and their GM looking good for GM Of the Year.  Scotland are 8-2 however and are 2 games ahead of Austria and will want to keep that lead.  Rhein however are 4-0 at home this year and are playing some exciting football.  We think Rhein could surprise the Claymores here.

Rhein by 7

Berlin at Paris

Paris could have a mini comeback late in their season if they win here to give them a 2 game winning streak.  After getting demolised by the Galaxy, Paris bounced back big time last week in destroying Barcelona.  Berlin have played good football at times but like Paris have severely disappointed this year.

Paris by 7

Frankfurt at Barcelona

If Rhein do lose to Scotland which is possible, a Frankfurt win here would put them one game behind in the playoff race.  Barcelona were very disappointing last week, Lee ReShard just cant get the yards on the ground but QB Tee Martin, a rookie, had an impressive showing.  Frankfurt should win this one easily but Barcelona, currently on a 24 game losing streak will upset someone soon.  Frankfurt are a suprising 0-4 on the road this year and have to win this game.

Frankfurt by 10

London at Austria

London are practically out of the playoffs after their tight loss to Scotland.  QB Drew Henson finally got the passing attack going with WR Dan Sheldon but Christopher Liess remains a disappointment.  London should put up a tough fight but dont seem to be closing many games this year and keep losing in tight games.  Austria need a win here to stay ahead in the playoff race, a loss here and they are just one game ahead of London. Should be a classic.
