Two unbeaten sides face off in a game which has potential grand final implications, as the University of Canberra Vikings host defending champions Brisbane City. Join The Roar from 2pm (AEDT) for live scores.
The Vikings have had an impressive 2015 NRC season, and are guaranteed a spot in the semi-finals.
Coming off a 42-16 win over Melbourne Rising, the Vikings have shown ruthlessness in both attack and defence.
The Vikings are also playing their second home game in a row, meaning they avoided the burden of travelling all the way to Queensland.
Defending champions and current holders of the Horan-Little Shield Brisbane City are the favourites to once again win the NRC. They have maintained consistency throughout the season, and have never really looked to be in any trouble.
City are coming off an incredible win over the Stars, demolishing the Sydney side by an astonishing 58-0, with Junior Laloifi bagging a hat-trick within 18 minutes.
When these two sides locked horns in Round 9 of the 2014 season, City comfortably controlled the game to earn a 21-point win.
Prediction
Both sides are on fire, and look dangerous all over the pitch. This should be an intense, back-and-forth battle that goes down to the wire.
Brisbane City by 5.
