AHL: All eyes on Ritten and Val Gardena

HC Neumarkt Riwega – EK Zeller Eisbären (19 p.m.) HC Neumarkt cost Rittner Buam the lead in the table with the unexpected 5:6 after extra time last Wednesday. Although Neumarkt only has 1 point, the Eisbären (7th place in the table) cannot take the game against their supposedly weak opponent lightly.

EC KAC II – HC Valgardena valgardena.it (19:30 p.m.) It's the duel for the red lantern. The Carinthians have lost every championship game so far, Val Gardena has won at least 1 game. The Furies parted ways with coach Lee Gilbert on Thursday and now the team has to prove what they are made of.

HC Pustertal Wölfe – EHC Alge Elastic Lustenau (20 p.m.) The Wolves won their last home game, now it is important to carry this momentum into the game against Lustenau, otherwise HC Pustertal runs the risk of slipping out of the top 10. The Vorarlbergers, on the other hand, are in 3th place in the table with just 14 points.

Rittner Buam – EC 'Die Adler' Stadtwerke Kitzbühel (20 p.m.) The Rittner are still undefeated, but the win in extra time against Neumarkt cost the Buam the lead in the table. Kitzbühel is an unpredictable opponent.

WSV Broncos Vipiteno Weihenstephan – FBI VEU Feldkirch (20:30 p.m.) The Broncos are in a scoring mood: 8:1 against Fassa and 7:0 against KAC II are the results of the last two games. The fifth-placed team will face the eighth-placed team, who won the last game against Val Gardena 9-1. Will the game be a goal festival?
