A massive outright win over Halls Gap skyrocketed Tatyoon into first place ahead of Youth Club.
Tatyoon has been in great form with the bat in recent weeks.
Opening batsman Andrew McDougall is coming off a century against Halls Gap, while Jarrod Blandford has also been hitting the ball well so far this season.
Blandford did not bat against the Gappers, but his two previous innings of 102 not out and 89 not out have him sitting with the massive average of 196.
The solid batting lineup of Tatyoon will face one of its biggest tests of the season against the dangerous bowling attack of Aradale.
The 2016-17 A Grade runners up boast the opening batting and bowling partnership of Travis Horvatek and Brent Tate.
The pair has taken 21 of Aradale’s 43 wickets in the first four rounds of the competition.
Victory for Aradale is crucial to keep in the hunt for a top four spot and continue to climb the ladder.
They sit in fourth place but just four points behind Tatyoon.
A loss could see them slip into fifth position and further away from the top two.
