Sweden: Superserien features two key matchups
The Swedish Superserien hits the midseason mark this weekend with a clash of unbeatens.
The defending champion and undefeated Stockholm Mean Machines (2-0) will play host to the unbeaten Tyresö Royals Crowns (2-0) while the Carlstad Crusaders (0-2) will take the road to face the Örebro Black Knights (0-2) in a battle of two teams looking for their first win of the season.
Carlstad Crusaders @ Örebro Black Knights
The Carlstad Crusaders came close to pulling off the upset last week against the Stockholm Mean Machines but lost 9-6 on a last second field goal. Meanwhile, Örebro struggled and were beaten 41-6 by the Tyresö Royal Crowns. The Black Knights lost in their opening game to Stockholm 48-12 while the Crusaders suffered a 33-7 loss to Tyresö to open the season.
Tyresö Royal Crowns @ Stockholm Mean Machines
Stockholm, fresh off a last second 29-27 loss to Germany’s defending champions, the Schwäbisch Hall Unicorns in Central European Football League play, will host a surging Tyresö team who have won both their Superserien games with relative ease. The Royal Crowns beat Carlstad 33-7 and then whipped the Black Knights 41-7.
