In the Men’s Premier League high-flying Bangor take on title-chasing South Antrim at the Aurora Leisure Centre.
The match is also a pre-emptive meeting of the upcoming Anderson Cup final which will see both sides go head-to-head for the first silverware of the men’s season in March.
Both sides come into the tie in fine form with South Antrim coming into the tie having lost just once in their last five outings, most recently drawing 1-1 with Belfast Harlequins courtesy of a David Gallagher equaliser.
Meanwhile, Bangor have continued their mid-season resurgence winning their last four league outings whilst also beating PSNI in the Kirk Cup.
Elsewhere Queen’s University host Portadown at the Dub with the sides separated by just three points this season.
It was the student side who came out on top when these sides met on matchday one of the league season, winning 5-2 at Edenvilla, but it is Portadown who find themselves higher in the division.
They have been led by Ryan Bennett who has scored a joint league high six goals this campaign, helping fire his side into fourth place this campaign.
A win for the visitors could see them move into third this weekend and overtake Instonians in the final EYHL2 position, meanwhile a win for their hosts could see them break into the top half.
The final game of the weekend sees PSNI take on North Down.
