Match of the week takes place in Club 2000 where the runaway leaders the Entertainers host the Murray. Stevie Kelly will be hoping drinking buddy Big C can mastermind an away win here, this one should be a cracker.

Elsewhere last year’s Champions come up against the Emeralds, who will be keen to bounce back from an 8balling fest by the Tower last week. The Emeralds may regard this as the perfect time to play the Hustlers, time will tell whether they are on the receiving end of a backlash.

Salmon Leap host the Greenhills, though the game has been re-scheduled for the Greenhills which will delight Greenhills players and area legends Jim McKenna and Mick Dunn.

The Murray Misfits host Club 2000 in another vital game for both teams, a game the Misfits will head into with lots of confidence after last week’s impressive victory.

The Top Guns survived a scare against the noisy Ospreys last week, and will head to the Whitehills knowing this is a team who has caused them problems over the years. Top Guns know they can't afford any slip up's though and while it's bound to be a tasty affair, should have enough to win on the night.

The Tower head to the Cuesters aiming to continue last week’s impressive form. The Cuesters may run them close but the Tower should be good enough for the win here.

The Ospreys and Hunters promises to be another noisy affair with the Ospreys team coming complete with Vocal Band. Hunters were unfortunate last week, despite being understrength and will fancy their chances of a solid win this week.

Finally, The Eagles host ECKO in what is bound to be a very close game. Neither team will be happy with a draw, but that's exactly what I predict will happen here.

Eagles - EKCO
Salmon Leap - Greenhills
Entertainers - Murray
Ospreys - Hunters
