With recent performances showcasing their potential, the Kraken aim to build momentum.

The keys to victory lie in maintaining discipline and executing game plans effectively. The atmosphere at Climate Pledge Arena is expected to be electric, with fans rallying behind the team in hopes of a thrilling victory to cap off their homestand.
