The third-placed Scorpions and fourth-placed Blues can’t afford to drop any points on Sunday if they’re to stay in touch with top two teams Shepparton United and Eaglehawk.
Shepparton United was held to a 2-2 draw by Tatura last Sunday and it faces another danger game this week against a Shepparton South side which has a win over Epsom to its CV this season.
Eaglehawk is on the road against Shepparton. The Hawks haven’t been at their best away from Bendigo, but they should get the points.
Colts United is still chasing its first win of the season and it hosts Spring Gully United at Strathfieldsaye.
In the final game of the round, Tatura will be too classy for Moama-Echuca Border Raiders.
In the women’s championship, ladder leaders Epsom and Shepparton United face danger games against Strathdale and Shepparton South respectively.
Epsom and Shepparton United will star favourites, but they’ll need to be at their best if they’re to win.
The in-form Colts United will chase its third-straight win when it hosts Spring Gully United.
Colts’ potent forward structure, led by Rebecca Berry, has caused headaches for opposition defences.
Spring Gully has struggled to recapture its 2016 form and could be in for a long day.
Bottom two teams Golden City and Swan Hill meet at Shadforth Park. Swan Hill has one draw from five games, while the Rams are winless in five matches.
