Dallas Jackals vs Seattle Seawolves Prediction: Jackals to book their final spot

Major League Rugby action moves to Starfire Sports, where the Dallas Jackals will play the Seattle Seawolves. The winner of this game will make it to the final, and we can expect them to be at their best. Which team makes the final?

The Dallas Jackals shocked the Houston SaberCats in their quarterfinal game, and we can expect more from them here. In that game, Dallas Jackals secured wins in each half, securing a 15-20 win at the end of halftime before a second-half 7-14 victory. However, the prior games to that win saw Dallas Jackals lose three consecutive matches against Old Glory DC, Utah Warriors, and the Houston SaberCats. Heading into this game, the Dallas Jackals will come in as underdogs, and they will have to step up their game if they want to get things right. 

The Seattle Seawolves were lucky to make it to this semifinal and will hope they can get things right here again. In their game against San Diego Legion, which ended 30-28, Seattle Seawolves won 18-9 at halftime. However, this team struggled in the second half, losing 1219, but their first-half win was good enough to see them make it to the round. Heading into this game, Seattle Seawolves have won three of their last five games, coming against Los Angeles RFC and Utah Warriors while also losing to Houston SaberCats and San Diego Legion in the same run. 

This is tough to predict, looking at this game's two teams’ form. The Seattle Seawolves are favorites, but the Dallas Jackals were brilliant last weekend, making me look forward to what they could do. The Dallas Jackals looked sharp, and I expect them to show some defensive solidity while being decent offensively, looking at how poor the Seattle Seawolves defense were against the San Diego Legion. This will end with close scores, but I will rely on the Dallas Jackals to make it to the next round.
