Watch Live: LT Football Must-Win to Reach Playoffs

Lyons Township (4-4) takes on powerhouse Leyden (7-1) at home, needing a win to avoid missing the postseason. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.

Lyons Township High School (4-4) takes on Leyden (7-1) at home at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 19 in the last regular-season showdown of the season.

The stakes couldn't possibly be higher for the Lions: a win puts them in the playoffs, a loss keeps them out. The Eagles, on the other hand, have already secured the West Suburban Gold championship, and might be expected to pull back slightly to avoid any injuries before the postseason.

If you can't make it out to LT's Bennett Field, 4900 Willow Springs Road in Western Springs, you can catch all the action via live-stream video right here thanks to High School Cube.
