It's easy to over-sell an ice hockey game, but this Saturday's top of the league clash between the Trafford Metros and Billingham Stars will be carefully watched by teams throughout the league.
The stats speak for themselves:
It couldn't be any tighter, and Trafford will desperately want to stamp their mark on this first meeting of the season between the two sides.
Mets hope to be at full strength, and a win will see them leapfrog Stars into pole position in the league. Make sure you're at the Ice Dome to cheer the lads on. Every extra voice counts! Face off is at 5.15pm.
