With Eastern Suburbs having now booked a home semi-final and Southern United secure as the best of the rest in fifth, there is little riding on the outcome here in terms of the final standings. The main motivation for Suburbs will be to take plenty of confidence into the play-offs on the back of another strong performance while Southern will be keen to underline their superiority over the sides below them by extending the gap between themselves and the likes of Hamilton Wanderers and Hawke’s Bay United.
