How will the Vipers do tonight?

Make your predictions, Who will win and what will be the final score?

Vernon is coming off a disappointing weekend, if playing well they should have mustered at least a point or 2. Salmon Arm is coming off 2 huge wins over the best team in the Interior, where they played very strong defensively. My heart is with the Vipers but my head says it will be 4 - 2 for the Gorillas. I think the difference is coaching and how each team is playing for the coaches and for each other. Come on Vipers please prove me wrong>
