There were some surprising scores in England this weekend, as both of the top two were held to 1-1 draws against sides in the relegation zone. It meant that Blyth-OK maintained their two point lead at the top, as they traded second half goals with NOMADS, but it was left a bit later by Albion Allstars who needed an 84th minute strike from Elliott Kelsey to save their unbeaten record.
Chester Ducks moved into third after they thumped The Tea Garden4-0, and the Ducks will now head to The Igor Balis Bowl to face Albion in Round 7 hoping to take second place from the Allstars. It won’t get much easier for Ginger’s Tea Garden side when they host Blyth.
Things are going from bad to worse for Gravediggers as they fell to a third straight defeat, this time at the hands of Beringen United Mightyred. It was a better performance from marko’s men but they were met with a strong showing from United keeper Davis Roach. Gravediggers travel to Edd’s Phantoms FC on Tuesday, whose defeat on Saturday led to Heeley Harriers picking up a welcome first win of the season. The Harriers will entertain The Red Devils Stars in an early six pointer, with the Stars looking to build off their spiriting point against Albion. NOMADS will aim for their first win of the season against crystal palace f.c, while two four match unbeaten runs are put to the test when Beringen entertain Aston Villa F.C.

After a thrilling Round 6 that saw some surprising results, the league is tighter than ever. Sumolix Stars have taken the lead on goal difference, but with both Saense and Castendo hot on their heels, every point is crucial as we move into Matchday 7. Here's a preview of the upcoming games:
Futebol Clube do Porto vs Pena d'Alva
Futebol Clube do Porto come into this match with momentum after a hard-fought 2-1 win over Surriba. Sitting in 4th place with 11 points, Porto will be looking to keep the pressure on the top three. They boast a strong defense and will face a Pena d'Alva side that just pulled off a stunning 3-0 victory over league leaders Saense. Despite their recent form, Pena d'Alva are still struggling in 11th place, and a trip to Porto could prove difficult. Porto will be favorites, but Pena d'Alva's newfound confidence could make this an intriguing contest.
Fernão Ferro vs Saense
This matchup is crucial for both teams. Fernão Ferro, unbeaten in their last five games, have been solid defensively and will look to frustrate a Saense side reeling from their first loss of the season. Saense, despite the defeat to Pena d'Alva, remain in 2nd place and will aim to get back on track. With both teams among the best defensive units in the league (Saense conceding just four goals, and Fernão Ferro only four), this could be a low-scoring affair, where a single goal may decide the outcome.
Sumolix Stars vs Surriba
Sumolix Stars, now the league leaders, will host Surriba, who are struggling after back-to-back defeats. Sumolix have been effective up front but also prone to conceding, making them a thrilling team to watch. With Surriba currently in 8th place and low on confidence, Sumolix are clear favorites. However, Surriba have shown they can be dangerous on their day, and Sumolix must be wary of any slip-ups if they want to stay at the top.
Desidrogenase vs Aguias da Rocha
After suffering a surprising 2-1 defeat to Sa City, Desidrogenase will be eager to bounce back. Sitting in 5th place, they can't afford any more slip-ups if they want to stay in contention for the top spots. They host a Aguias da Rocha side that picked up a much-needed 1-0 win over Galacticos in the last round. Aguias da Rocha are still in 10th place and will be looking to build on that victory, but they'll need to be at their best to overcome a stronger Desidrogenase team, especially away from home.
LuckyStar vs Sa City
LuckyStar remain rooted to the bottom of the table after their sixth consecutive defeat. However, they have shown some fight in recent matches, including scoring a goal in their 1-3 loss to Sumolix Stars. They'll see this home fixture against Sa City as a chance to finally get off the mark. Sa City, on the other hand, are buoyed by their impressive 2-1 win over Desidrogenase and will hope to capitalize on LuckyStar’s poor form. This is a critical match for Sa City, who will aim to climb further up the standings, while LuckyStar will be desperate to avoid yet another loss.
Galacticos vs Castendo
This match pits a resurgent Galacticos side against unbeaten Castendo. Despite their 1-0 loss to Aguias da Rocha, Galacticos have generally been solid this season and sit 7th in the table. They will be motivated to rebound, especially at home. Castendo, meanwhile, have been defensively resolute, conceding just one goal all season. However, they’ve dropped points in three draws and will be eager to secure a win to keep pace with the top two. Expect Castendo to adopt a cautious approach, but Galacticos could pose a threat if they find their rhythm in attack.

We have our first midweek matchday as things are heating up in Campeonato Brasileiro. Leaders Real Celeste managed to survive their encounter with the champions last weekend, but the 1-1 draw did not allow them to put some distance between themselves and their opponents. They face Capelópolis next, in what could be called CB’s “clássico da amizade”.
The real winners of the last round were surely Guará, the only team in the top five to pick up a victory, launching them to second place in the table. They have a chance to strike while the iron is hot, as they face Botafogo next, a team that is struggling and has won only one match so far.
Série B:
Now, over in Série B, it’s easy to spot B1’s highlight for this round: Bit faces Big Fish — first and second place in a direct challenge for the top of the division. ‘Nuff said!
Reunited and it feels so… well, not that good. Geny and Balta have an old rivalry dating back to their (seemingly endless) spell in C7. They meet again after some time, now in B2. A derby like this can’t be missed — there’s one perfect fit, and this one is it. Meanwhile, leaders Santaço will face Meia Boca, a team that is allergic to losing — and to winning, as they’ve got five draws in six matches.
Série C — Highlights:
We start in C1, where Quiosque is on fire. The swans are the only team in the top three divisions with a perfect record this season: six wins in six games. They will try to keep that streak alive against Lespa next.
Fresh off their demotion from B1 and hoping for a quick return to B1, Made in Hell will face C2 leaders Paulista, who took their first defeat this season last saturday. A true test for both sides.
Speaking of tests, there’s a shakeup in C3. Amnésia took over the top with a stylish offensive display, dethroning Consermon. But the former leaders have no time to mourn: they face second-place The Walking Dead next, and must win if they want to bounce back.
C5 also has new leaders: cup kings Paulinho might have suffered a regicide in last week’s Cup round, but they are doing great in the League. They face Primonha away today.
Intervalqueire still leads C6 with the best defense in all of Série C. They`re up against Chocolate Sensual, a club that came close to winning the league last season, but has struggled this season — as has been the case in recent seasons for teams that go through a rebranding (as a rocking hurricane and a cute dog might attest to).
After a shaky start, Golden Eagle has won three in a row and is putting together a comeback in C7. Momentum is on their side, but their next opponent will be a tough one: leaders 3Kings United.
Finally, in C8, we’ve got something special. Didicos is off to a great season start and is the current holder of the DO-BR Belt. Their next opponents? None other than Quebra Perna, led by the very manager who envisioned and created the Belt in the first place. Is it coming home?
In our fourth tier, D12 has an important matchup today, as Açaí Radical faces ornitorrinco in a duel for the top spot. What tactical surprises will the platypus cook for us this time?

The final unbeaten record of this division was broken in Round 6, as mexico city succumbed to an unexpected defeat to Telluride Smugglers. The result lifted the Smugglers up one place, but not enough to leave the bottom three, which they will aim to do on Tuesday away to Galaxy LA. That won’t be an easy task mind, with Galaxy on a three match unbeaten run after they took the spoils by a single goal against NY Cosmos.
FC Seher Bosna were victorious again, picking up a routine home victory against Velez SC with Spass Bojichkov on the scoresheet twice. The Bulgarian is the current league top scorer with 13 goals. They will travel to SC Real Madrid who picked up the simple win at ten man formation Stranger Things who on the brighter side, are no longer poised to go inactive.
There was a blow in Round 6 though for TeamScout, as they couldn’t hold on for victory in Florida against FC Orlando Gators, with the game finishing 1-1. They now sit two points back from Seher Bosna in a share for second and will attempt to close that gap at home to NY Cosmos next up. New Jersey Stars are also in that tie on 13 points after thumping FC Dallas1-4, and they take on mexico city on Tuesday. Dallas head to Velez SC, while the fixtures are rounded off with Orlando Gators hosting Stranger Things.
