Venue: Inter&Co Stadium, Orlando, Florida (Orlando Storm home).
Kickoff is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. ET.
National broadcast on FOX.
This is the second meeting of the season between these teams.
Weather Updates: Warm and humid Florida spring conditions. Kickoff temperatures expected in the low-to-mid 80s°F (around 82-86°F), with partly cloudy skies and a 40-60% chance of scattered showers or thunderstorms in the afternoon/evening. Humidity will be high (70%+). Any rain could make the field slick but is unlikely to cause a delay at the open-air Inter&Co Stadium. Typical late spring conditions that may favor the team with better offensive execution in the heat.
Injury Report:
Birmingham Stallions: The team has dealt with significant quarterback instability. They recently traded for Dorian Thompson-Robinson and have rotated QBs amid offensive struggles. No major new long-term absences widely reported, but depth is being tested.
Orlando Storm: Relatively healthy overall. The Storm have maintained strong depth while posting an excellent record. Monitor final practice reports for any last-minute changes to key defensive contributors.
Key Player Matchups & Team Leaders:
Orlando Storm Offense/Defense: QB Jack Plummer has been efficient and steady. RB Jashaun Corbin provides balance, while the defense (led by edge rusher Keshawn Banks with consistent sacks and linebacker Tavante Beckett) has been elite. The Storm lead the league in few points allowed and recorded the first shutout in UFL history earlier this season.
Birmingham Stallions Offense/Defense: The Stallions feature talented WRs including Deon Cain, Justyn Ross, and others, but the offense has been inconsistent and turnover-prone. QB play (whether Thompson-Robinson, Matt Corral remnants, or others) remains the biggest question mark.
Key battles: Orlando’s stifling defense vs. Birmingham’s attempt to find offensive rhythm; Stallions’ ability to pressure Plummer vs. the Storm’s home-field control and run defense.
Team Records & Recent Forms:
Birmingham Stallions (1-4): Struggling early in the season with major offensive woes. They are coming off multiple losses and were shut out 16-0 by these same Orlando Storm in Week 4. The Stallions have talent but have yet to put together consistent performances on both sides of the ball.
Orlando Storm (4-1): One of the top teams in the UFL. They started the season strong (including a historic 16-0 shutout of Birmingham) and have built their success on elite defense paired with efficient offense. The Storm enter with excellent momentum and are playing confident football.
Series History:
Orlando leads the 2026 season series 1-0 after the April 18 shutout victory (16-0 in Birmingham). This is only the second meeting between the franchises in the current UFL alignment.
Betting Trends
Orlando has dominated recent matchups, especially defensively, and performs well at home. Birmingham’s games have often been lower-scoring due to offensive struggles. The Storm’s defensive-minded approach frequently leads to Unders, while Birmingham has been an underdog most of the season.
