ST. Louis Battlehawks vs Houston Roughnecks Prediction 4 May 2024

In this match of the sixth round of the UFL, St. Louis Battlehawks vs. Houston Roughnecks, there is an undeniable favorite, and our prediction, obviously, takes this fact into account. Interestingly, the head-to-head record between the sides is tied (1-1), which adds a minimal level of intrigue to the upcoming battle.

St. Louis has been actively dominating its competitors over the course of the season, having learned the right lessons from the initial loss to Michigan (16:18). The team has won four consecutive matches, demonstrating superb organization upfront. AJ McCarron consistently makes a significant contribution to the team's efforts, leading the league in the number of passes (10). The emotional mindset of the guys is also completely in order. Therefore, their future prospects look bright.

Houston, on the other hand, has thoroughly sunk into a deep hole, essentially resigning to being at the bottom of the league table. Last week, the team offered no resistance to Birmingham (9:32), losing initiative already in the first quarter (0:6). Only Memphis and Arlington are performing worse than the Texas representatives so far, though the difference is not too substantial even by statistical measures. Offensively, Curtis Johnson's charges are performing worse than anyone else, which is the main reason for such unsatisfactory results.
