Round 4 is ready to Start on Saturday for AFLW this weekend. This week we have some matchups where the Llamas and the All- Stars have the Chance to get their first win on the board and Caribou and the Royals to keep their undefeated streak alive. The Matchups for the Week is: Matchup 1: Quebec Caribou @FreeKickLiam (3-0) vs Adelaide All Stars @Corza (0-1-2) My prediction for this week will be Caribou for the win as All Stars have a lot of injuries to start the season. Match up 2: Lagos Royals @Peter W (3-0) vs Stuttgart Storm @Jono Steven. This is a matchup for the ages two top 4 teams one looking to keep their undefeated streak alive and the other to keep the top 4 spot. This matchup I feel will be the closest of them all for the weekend. Match up 3 : Majorca Islanders @TheTassieHawk (2-1) vs Korean Kickers @Chloe (1-2). This matchup is 3 vs 7th. The Kickers have a chance to make the top 6 of the league with a win this week. Feel this matchup could go anyway but feeling the Kickers get up in an upset this week. Match up 4: Darmstadt Dynamos @WillH_VI (1-2) vs Vancouver Vultures @Athos123 (1-2) This matchup is going to be the most fascinating of the lot I feel comes down to who plays this week for each team and which mids will fire in this matchup. Match up 5 Kyoto Kruisers @FreoDockers (1-2) vs Lima Llamas @hoschke118 (0-1-2). This is a matchup of the 2 of the bottom 3. The Llamas is looking for their first win of the season. The Llamas this season had the first and only draw with the All Stars. Hoping their team can get over the line to get their first win of the season would be nice.
