Today

Stettler Wildcats (1-1) at West Central Rebels (1-1), 4:30 p.m., Rocky — Stettler is one of the bigger teams in the league with a solid ground attack. The Rebels showed signs of jelling against Wetaskiwin last week. Up in the air, but a feeling. Pick: Stettler.

Camrose Trojans (0-2) at Wetaskiwin Sabres (0-2), 7:30 p.m. ­— Neither team off to a good start and have several holes they have to fill. Camrose does appear to have a couple of solid running backs, which may be the difference. Pick: Camrose.

Friday

Sylvan Lake Lakers (2-0) at Lacombe Rams (1-1), 7:30 p.m. — The Lakers are solid in most areas while Lacombe still is working on coming together after losing a number of players last season. Pick: Sylvan Lake.

Lindsay Thurber Raiders (0-1) at Hunting Hills Lightning (1-0), 7:30 p.m., Great Chief Park — The Lightning looked good in their first start of the season last week while the Raiders may need a little more time to gain experience on their line. Pick: Hunting Hills.

Bye: Notre Dame.
