The 6 best teams of the men’s National 2 will start the play-offs this weekend. A total of 10 games remains to be played for all 6 teams involved. A look at the standings shows that there is one clear leader to promote to the LBBL: The Kordall Steelers have won 14 out of 16 games in the regular season. Mondorf comes in second 2 points behind Kordall and only 1 points in front of Black Star.
On Friday-evening, Bascharage has the chance to tie with Black Star in the standings with a road win. However, the team from Mersch has the chance to take a 2-point lead over the opponent. Mambra Mamer and Racing Luxembourg are under pressure to start this round because they need victories in order to stay in the promotion race. It looks like this could become a very interesting fight until the final game day.
The first two teams after the play-offs will promote to the LBBL immediately, while the 3rd seeded team will play a best-of-3 promotion-series against the 3rd last placed team of the LBBL.

FRIDAY:
20:00 Black Star Mersch – Hedgehogs Bascharage
