Score Prediction
This matchup features two teams that have endured inconsistent seasons. However, it's worth noting that the Quakes have done a great job of turning things around after finishing near the bottom of the standings last year.
Now, they'll need to maintain that momentum, as the Orange and Blue are determined to make a late push for the playoffs. Nevertheless, don’t doubt for one second that this encounter doesn’t have that spice of excitement and mystery, as anyone can win.
One thing is true: the first to score will most likely win the game.
