Not normally on my watch list is Fife, but with Lucic and Booth playing, I think I'll give this one a watch. Booth does appear to already be on form with 5 goals in his last 4 games. Lucic also off the mark in Fife's last game.
We need a confidence inspiring win for this one, but at the moment our results seem to be quite difficult to predict, despite us being 23 points in front of Fife!
On current from, I predict a close 3-2 Steelers scrappy win. I can also see Fife winning if we play as badly as the Manchester games.
Play to our potential and it's a 5-0 win for the Steelers.
Greenfield gets the start for me.

just based on the fact that fifes better results have been in their own barn as opposed to away,, should be an interesting watch though as fife have picked recently since getting couple new players in line up,,,,

Not sure if Booth will be playing or not. He went off injured in the 2nd period against Dundee on Wednesday.
Shame as he knows where the net is and is still more than capable even at 41.

Fife are at 49% on faceoffs, so we may win a few tonight.
Keaton Jameson looks good at them though, so expect him to take the key ones and probably win them.
It will be a shame if Booth isn't fit, because I was really looking forward to watching him perform.

Based on our last two games I think this is difficult to predict but we desperately need the win to get some confidence back. A loss tonight could also affect numbers of supporters attending for a few games. In fact I think attendance will already be lower despite the chance to see Lucic and Booth. I'm going for a narrow win. If it was in Fife I would be even less confident
