It's a four-game Saturday night in Week 22's action!
Coventry Blaze host Guildford Flames as the teams in fifth and fourth meet at the Skydome. This could end up being a Playoff Quarter-Final fixture if the sides don't move positions over the next 17 or so games until the end of the season, as the Blaze aim to stave off competition from Dundee below the,, and the Flames try to keep touch with the top three. The Flames have won two of the three meetings in Coventry so far this season, but still need to visit once more before the season is over.

It's a huge game at the Storm Shelter with Manchester hosting Dundee. both teams have been out of form of late, and both are trying to keep themselves in the playoff places under pressure from below. Storm snapped their three-game winless streak with a comeback victory over Belfast midweek, while Dundee fell to their fifth defeat in a row. The teams will meet each other twice more before the end of the regular season, while Dundee are winless in Manchester in almost two years.

League leaders Sheffield Steelers host rivals Nottingham Panthers at the Utilita Arena as both teams look to extend their good form. The Panthers' midweek win over Dundee gave them back-to-back wins for the first time since October, and mean they have won three of the last four games. Sheffield haven't lost since 20 January, and also haven't been defeated on their own ice by the Panthers since November 2021.

After facing Fife in Cardiff on Wednesday night, the Devils now prepare for a Scottish double-header weekend, starting in Kirkcaldy on Saturday night.
