Vikings Colts go head-to-head against Harlequins Colts in the PwC Mixed Division Three on Saturday in what is a very important game for both sides.

If Vikings win they stay in the hunt for the league title, while if Harlequins succeed they will go four points clear of Vikings Colts and may even take the lead in the title race depending on how Vikings D get on against Harlequins B.

Elsewhere in Division Three, Southerners take on Bacchas D with the latter ooking to move into the top half of the table at the expense of Valkyrs D who are playing Saracens Sharks.

In the PwC Mixed Premier League, Bacchas B will be hoping to move off the bottom of the table against Valkyrs A. With the latter running out narrow winners in the reverse fixture, this looks to be a tense and close game.

Bacchas A take on Ramsey A and, with Bacchas currently top of the table on goal difference, this will be a hard game for the northerners to take any points away with them.

Vikings A could regain top spot by beating a physical but dangerous Celts side who are looking for any point they can in their battle for survival.

With the relegation battle in PwC Mixed Division One all but decided, Vikings C are looking to show the rest of the division they can compete against a Saracens Sabres side who, on their day, are one of the most dangerous and clinical teams in the division.

With George Powell scoring his 100th goal for Saracens last weekend, he is leading his side well and Vikings C will struggle to get anything out of this game.

Vikings B continue their title push against Bacchas C who did well to disrupt Vikings’ stride during the reverse fixture.

Valkyrs D will want to try and keep pace with Vikings B by beating Harlequins A. The latter, however, have their own agenda and, after an up-and-down season, will want to prove they are capable of winning the league next year.

In PwC Mixed Division Two, there is an interesting battle forming in the fight to survive, with Bacchas Colts taking on a Ravens side reeling from their loss against Valkyrs C last week.

Valkyrs C are taking on a Saracens Colts team who desperately want to win as, with a game in hand, they have a great chance to catch Ravens.

Cammags are the team tasked with getting something from Ravens this week but, having had a weak season following relegation last year, they will have to work incredibly hard to win on Saturday.
