Report

The only other team to start the season with 5 wins, the Houston SaberCats, standin their way. The Legion are coming into this Western Conference clash fresh off of a bye week, while the SaberCats are coming off a frenetic game against Anthem RC from which they were lucky to escape with a victory. These teams have met 11 times in the past, with the Legion holding a 7-4 series lead. The most recent meeting between these teams came in Round 17 of the 2024 season, when the Legion won a comfortable 37-24 game at Snapdragon Stadium on the back of 14pts from Harris Rutherford.
