KEY SEASON LINKS:

 

 

Boston Lobsters @ Orange County Breakers 7:00 p.m. PDT (Watch Live Stream)

This live stream of the day has major playoff implications. If Boston loses, they cannot make the playoffs. If Orange County wins, they clinch a spot in the Finals Weekend presented by GEICO. It cannot get much bigger than this with two matches remaining in the season. Don't miss this match.

 

New York Sportimes @ Springfield Lasers 7:05 p.m. CDT
For the second match in a row, The Sportimes can clinch a spot in the playoffs with a win or a Boston and Philly loss. The Lasers have reemerged as a playoff contender after a 0-6 start to the season. However, Springfield does need to win their final two matches to have a chance at making the playoffs.

 

Washington Kastles @ Kansas City Explorers 7:35 p.m. CDT
The Kastles look to extend their win streak to 29 in Kansas City Friday night, while the Explorers look to extend their playoff chances. The Kastles are two matches away to becoming the first professional sports team to achieve two consecutive undefeated regular seasons.

 

Philadelphia Freedoms @ Sacramento Capitals 7:35 p.m. PDT
Philadelphia’s Mark Philippoussis makes another appearance as the Freedoms hope to win a tough road match against Sacramento. The Capitals currently stand in second place, but have not clinched a playoff spot. Freedoms need to win and hope for a New York loss to remain in the playoff hunt. The last time these two teams met in Philadelphia with Sacramento winning by six.

 

 

Philadelphia Freedoms @ Orange County Breakers 7:00 p.m. PDT (Watch Live Stream)
Last time these two teams met, the Freedoms were able to defeat the Breakers behind great play from the Pliskova twins. Orange County has been strong this year at home, winning four out of five matches, not including Friday night’s match. Orange County is in good shape, owning the head to head tiebreakers in the West. A win on Friday or Saturday would allow them to advance. Philadelphia needs a three-way tie in the East for a chance to make the playoffs.

 

Washington Kastles @ Springfield Lasers 7:05 p.m. CDT
The Kastles clinched the East earlier this week, but that has not stopped them from continuing their win streak. With a win Saturday night, they will become the first professional sports team to complete two consecutive undefeated regular seasons. Springfield, even after starting the season 0-6, can make the playoffs, but a number of different scenarios have to happen in order for that to occur. Ultimately, Springfield needs to take care of what they control and let the pieces fall where they may.

 

New York Sportimes @ Kansas City Explorers 7:35 p.m. CDT
With one win in the last two matches, New York can seal up the second spot in the East. The Explorers, along with the other three teams in the West, are right in the thick of the playoffs. Ultimately, the Sportimes are in the best position out of the seven teams fighting for the playoffs right now.

 

Boston Lobsters @ Sacramento Capitals 7:35 p.m. PDT
Sacramento had a firm grip on first place before this week, but a pair of losses to Orange County changed that. They have a good chance to make the playoffs if they can get back on the winning track this weekend. Boston needs a little more help. The Lobsters will be pulling for the Western Conference to shut out their Eastern Conference opponents this weekend.
