The last two times the Jacksonville Sharks and Philadelphia Soul met, the Sharks got the best of the Soul at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. The one most people remember was last season's American Conference Championship game. 

The Sharks, who had come into the game after a 1-5 start in the 2015 season, shocked the Soul to advance to Arena Bowl XXVIII, where they would lose to the San Jose Sabercats.

In their Week 3 meeting, the Sharks forced several Soul turnovers in a win. The loss for the Soul was their first of the season. Since that game, the Sharks have won many big games, such as upsetting the Orlando Predators, but they also lost a 33-14 lead in a loss to the Cleveland Gladiators.

The Soul were thought of the hottest team in the AFL since the loss to the Sharks. That was until they went into Cleveland and lost to the Gladiators, who have now won four in a row.

In their meeting in Jacksonville on Saturday, the Sharks will look to prove that they are better than they have been playing lately. The Soul will look to prove that they are still one of the hottest teams in the league after their loss last week. 

The key to victory for each team consists of turnovers. For the Sharks, they must force Soul turnovers like they did in their week 2 meeting. For the Soul, they must avoid committing turnovers.
