be taking on the Nottingham Panthers in a key match-up at the top of the EIHL standings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both sides will be heading into the match-up with confidence with Nottingham currently leading the season series with three victories out of a possible five.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cardiff currently sit in second place in the Elite League just one point ahead of Nottingham in third place, though the Devils have two games in hand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After suffering defeat at the hands of EIHL leaders, Belfast Giants, last weekend the Devils will hope to return to winning ways against the Panthers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Devils now in the tail end of the season each point matters as they chase the regular season title in preparation for the play-offs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After taking the IIHF Continental Cup last weekend, by beating Grenoble&#8217;s Bruleurs de Loups from France and GKS Katowice from Poland, the Devils already have one piece of silverware under their belt but are hungry for more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The team will wear special edition pride jerseys to celebrate the occasion in partnership with Pride
