Manchester Storm host the Dundee Stars this evening at 1900 with the visitors looking for their first win, and points, in the Premier Sports Elite League.

Omar Pacha's side have three wins in the cup but have so far not picked up anything in their three league games to date.

They face a Manchester side that hoped they'd turned a corner with a 5-0 league win over Fife on Saturday night, only to be thrashed 8-0 by the Flyers 24 hours later.

Stars' goalie Adam Morrison currently holds the league's highest save percentage up at 94.31% through three games, despite them all ending in losses. The Stars give up a league-high of 41 shots per game (Storm 33, #6).

Both sides have struggled on special teams through three games. In league action alone, Manchester's powerplay sits at 12.5% while Dundee haven't scored a powerplay goal yet. On the other hand, the Stars have yet to concede on the  penalty kill while Storm are only killing of 63.6% of the penalties they take.
