Sheffield ad Glasgow meet at the Utilita Arena with both sides looking for a response after coming out on the wrong end of scorelines against Cardiff last weekend.

The Steelers were beaten 5-4 in overtime in Wales in their only game after their trip to Belfast was postponed. Aaron Fox's team still lead the league by five points, with a game in hand, and haven't lost an EIHL game in regulation since the 11 November, a streak stretching over some seven games.

Clan coach Malcolm Cameron was not pleased with his side after they conceded four third-period goals to lose at home to the Devils on Sunday night. Clan have picked up over half of their 11 points so far on the road where they're 3-0-0-4 through seven games, and sit eighth overall. With Coventry and Fife, the two teams below them, not playing tonight, they have the chance to extend the gap between themselves and falling out of the playoff places.

This is the first meeting between these sides this season and since January 2020.
