Matchup:
Rhein Fire at Berlin Thunder
Date & Kickoff:

Game Info:
The last time these two German sides met it was an offensive spectacle and there is every reason to expect more of the same today. The Berlin Thunder need a win to keep their playoff hopes alive, while Rhein Fire are looking to finally seal their playoff spot and put themselves in the perfect position to clinch the Northwest Conference title. But since that first meeting, Rhein Fire’s defense has done far more than just stabilize. It has quietly become one of the top three defenses in the entire league and will be looking to prove exactly that today. The big question on the other side is whether the Berlin Thunder defense can finally step up and give quarterback Jakeb Sullivan and the offense the support they need. If they can, this game opens right up.
