The Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills collide in a 2015 Week 3 NFL Preseason game at the Bills' Ralph Wilson Stadium in Orchard Park on Saturday, August 29.

Both team's starters are still expected to appear on this one albeit in limited minutes as they make their final preparations before the official start of the regular season.

Pittsburgh defeated the Green Bay Packers, 24-19, in what seemed to be a cursed Week 2 Preseason game last Sunday which saw four key starters from both sides go down with injuries, as per SB Nation.

The Steelers will miss starting four-time Pro Bowler center Maurkice Pouncey for the season with a broken fibula while the Packers lost top wideout Jordy Nelson with a torn ACL.

Meanwhile, the Bills edged out the Cleveland Browns, 11-10, in their Thursday encounter at the FirstEnergy Stadium, via Bleacher Report.

The battle for the starting signal caller spot in Buffalo is still ongoing between Matt Cassel and E.J. Manuel, and it seems like the latter is getting head coach Rex Ryan's nod at this time.

Prediction: Bills win, 17-14
