The semi-finals in the Swiss Nationalliga A continue this weekend. On Saturday the Bern Cardinals host the Embrach Mustangs for the decisive fifth game of their series. Each team so far was able to win at home, so the Cards should be considered slightly as the favorite.
In the second semi-final series the Therwil Flyers and the Zurich Challengers are looking at games two and three this weekend with the reigning champion facing a 0-1 deficit after losing game one on a walk-off single in Zurich one week ago. Now the series shifts to Therwil.
