Predators seeking redemption
The Predators have had a challenging start to the season, narrowly losing to Limhamn 14-13 in their opener and then falling 27-7 to the Tyresö Royal Crowns. A major concern has been their running game, which has produced only 30 yards per game while allowing 156 yards on the ground. However, they are getting back defensive leader Max Forsback, who returns from suspension and is expected to bolster their defense significantly. Quarterback Philip Juhlin has thrown for 392 yards and two touchdowns, and wide receiver Jakob Stenberg has six receptions for 81 yards and a touchdown, showing that the Predators have the talent to compete.
