Landsborough will be at home against second-placed Crowlands with a win needed to ensure it finishes the round ahead of bottom placed Ararat.
The home team is four points clear of the reigning premiers but Crowlands have built into some strong form on the court in recent weeks and will not make it easy for its opponents to get the points from Saturday’s match-up.
The round will be pivotal with the top three teams all separated by just eight points.
Landsborough will be hoping Buangor can hold off Ararat in its match to hopefully extend the points lead on the ladder.
Second-placed Buangor will go into the match against Ararat as heavy favourites and could even finish the round in second place if Crowlands loses its match.
Ladder-leaders Elmhurst will enjoy the week off, knowing they will continue to hold the top spot after being fixtured a bye in round six.
The round will be pivotal with the top three teams all separated by just eight points on the ladder.
