Game day 17 is on the schedule this weekend.
After earning victory during the week, Gréngewald Hueschtert has a chance to make a serious push at the play-off places with a road win in Contern while the hosts can improve their good position. The most interesting game in the play-off race will be played in Mamer where Mambra (6:9) takes on Sparta (6:10). The first game between both teams was arguably the most thrilling game all season and ended with a buzzer beater in overtime in favor of Mamer (115:112), the direct comparison might be the tie breaker after 22 games so that both teams will try to earn that comparison.
