PFL Playoffs 1 takes place Friday at the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York.

The prelims stream on ESPN+ at 6 p.m. ET. The main card airs on ESPN and streams on ESPN+ at 7 p.m. ET. Afterward, four qualifier fights will stream on ESPN+ at 6 p.m. ET.

Former UFC and WEC champion Anthony Pettis (25-13) heads into the lightweight playoffs as the No. 1 seed and will immediately rematch No. 4 Stevie Ray (24-10), who scored a second-round submission of Pettis in their most recent bout. In the other matchup, No. 2 Olivier Aubin-Mercier (15-5) meets No. 3 Alexander Martinez (10-2), with both men entering the playoffs 2-0 this year on the strength of a pair of decisions for each fighter.

In the light heavyweight playoffs, a significant shakeup occurred after No. 3 seed and defending champion Antonio Carlos Jr. (15-5) withdrew from his fight against American Top Team teammate and No. 2 seed Omari Akhmedov (23-7-1). Stepping in for Junior is another one of Akhmedov’s teammates at American Top Team, Josh Silveira (9-0), who finished the regular season in fifth place and was an alternate. Top light heavyweight seed Rob Wilkinson (15-2) will take on No. 4 Delan Monte (9-2) on the other half of the bracket.
