The St. Louis Battlehawks still have challenges ahead.
At the beginning of the year, head coach Anthony Becht expressed confidence in the team’s roster, stating he believed it was strong enough to win the 2025 UFL Championship, set for June 14 in front of their home crowd in St. Louis.
If the playoffs started today, however, the Battlehawks would miss out and be watching from home.
“We’ve got a huge game next week against a divisional opponent,” Becht said. “And I’m just asking everyone to bring a friend.”
The contest Becht is referring to is the opening game of Week 6, with the Battlehawks hosting the Arlington Renegades in an all-important XFL Conference tilt on Friday night (8 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app). It’s a crucial matchup, with both teams sitting at 3-2 on the season and fighting for the second playoff spot in the division.
The Renegades won the previous head-to-head matchup earlier this year, a 30-15 victory in Arlington in Week 4.
