Michigan Panthers at Birmingham Stallions Preview & Picks

The Under is tipped to cash in this battle of playoff-bound teams.

With the venue of the upcoming playoff meeting already confirmed this is essentially a ‘dead rubber’, and that means this could see a sloppy game played out by the backups.

  • Birmingham Stallions games are averaging 38.5 total points
  • The Under hit in each of the 3 previous regular season meetings
  • Birmingham Stallions are 9-1 in home games since the UFL launched
  • Birmingham Stallions are 6-0 against Michigan since the launch of the USFL in 2022

Head To Head

  • Birmingham Stallions lead the all-time series 6-0
  • Birmingham Stallions won 21-12 when the two teams last met on April 4

Michigan Panthers Form

Michigan head to Birmingham on a three-game win streak that has taken them to 6-2 and a place in the playoffs.

The Panthers opened the season with a 26-12 win in Memphis, only to suffer an early setback as they lost 21-12 to Birmingham in their home opener.

They rebounded with back-to-back wins, beating San Antonio 26-23 and Memphis 27-9, but failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 32-27 in St Louis.

Michigan responded immediately though, beating DC 38-14 at home, and they have backed that up with back-to-back road games.

The Panthers downed the Renegades in Arlington, 25-24, before heading to Houston to beat the Roughnecks 30-18.

Birmingham Stallions Form

Birmingham go into this game on the back of their third defeat of the season, but having already secured a playoff place.

The Stallions dominated spring football in each of the previous three seasons, only to show some vulnerability in 2025 so far.

They opened with an 18-11 defeat in FC, but rebounded with a three-game win streak that saw them beat Michigan 21-12, Arlington 10-9 and Houston 23-16.

Birmingham’s run was ended by a 24-20 home loss to Memphis, only for them to rebound with a 26-3 win over San Antonio and a 33-25 success against Houston.

The Stallions failed to make it three-in-a-row however, as they were beaten 29-28 in St Louis last time out.

Verdict

There is no real motivation for either team to send out their starters for this one.

As a result, we expect to see plenty of backups and some off-key offense in this matchup, resulting in a low points total.
