Big Match Preview: Cardiff (Away)


Welcome to our look ahead to the next Sheffield Steelers game.

After a four point weekend, Steelers are on the road in midweek as the season intensifies to its conclusion. Steelers head south to visit the following:


Yes we're back in the principality for a game against the champions-elect Cardiff. It's a chance to pick up a rare win down there for the boys and beat the Devils for the second time in the space of four days. GB internationalist Ben Bowns didn't feature all weekend for Andrew Lord's team, and although Tom Murdy covered his absence very well indeed, we're expecting Bownsy to be back in between the pipes come tomorrow (Wednesday). If he isn't then there has to be something seriously wrong.

Steelers will be at full strength which means that Paul Thompson may be forced into deciding whom to sit as the spare import, a decision which will get much harder if as expected John Armstrong is back in contention for a team spot in two weeks time. One can only start speculate the combination he will have to make. With third placed Belfast at fourth placed Fife at the same time, a win for the Steelers could see them move into fourth if they succeed in South Wales.

My prediction? Cardiff to take the game on home ice, 5-2 is my call. What about you?
