I did watch that Arizona-Utah semifinal on Saturday. Arizona was VERY fortunate to get out of that game with a win.
The injury you were referring to is Virgil Gray who left the game with a knee injury in the first half. I haven't heard anything official but I would seriously doubt that he'll be able to play in Friday night's ArenaBowl against Philly. Arizona is looking to make amends for losing in the ArenaBowl to the Aaron Garcia led Jacksonville Sharks in 2011 and the Arizona Rattlers will be looking to prove they aren't the Texas Rangers or Buffalo Bills (teams that go to consecutive championship games without winning one).

I'll take the Soul for the limit if it is -1, which is the number Betonline posted, when it's widely available. Arizona was very fortunate to win last week in my opinion, and Philadelphia looked sharp in all aspects of their game. If they play close to those levels on Friday then I expect the Soul to win by multiple touchdowns.

Still deciding which side is the 'right side' for myself and my clients for this weekend, but it's very much worth noting the DRAMATIC strength of schedule differential between these two teams, both in the regular season and here in the playoffs.
My power rating numbers show that six of the top eight teams in the league played in the West this year. Philly played six games against those 'elite' teams, and at least two of those games were 'miserable spot' situations for their opponent.
Arizona, on the other hand, played eleven games against quality foes, and they do have the experience of having played in the Arena Bowl last year, but coming up about 2 seconds short of bringing home a title.....
