Finnish Maple League Round 7 Preview: Unbeaten Butchers face title challengers

| American Football | 07/25/2025

The Porvoon Butchers (5-0) put their perfect record on the line against the Seinäjoki Crocodiles (4-1) in a Finnish Maple League Round 7 showdown, while the Wasa Royals (3-2) aim to bolster playoff hopes against the struggling East City Giants (1-4).

Porvoon Butchers (5-0) @ Seinäjoki Crocodiles (4-1)
The league-leading Butchers, averaging 47.6 points per game (238 total), face their closest competitor in the Crocodiles, whose defense allows just 7.8 points per contest (39 total). A Seinäjoki victory would narrow the gap in the title race.

Wasa Royals (3-2) @ East City Giants (1-4)
The Royals, seeking consistency in their playoff push, meet the Giants, who rank second to last in points scored (59 total). Wasa’s balanced offense (76 total points) looks to exploit East City’s defensive vulnerabilities (167 total points allowed).

With the Butchers chasing history and mid-standing teams jostling for position, Round 7 could produce pivotal shifts in the Maple League hierarchy.
