Rushen United host Peel in the Canada Life Premier League this weekend with the Spaniards looking to maintain their 100% start.
Peel drew 3-3 at home to Ayre on Tuesday, while Rushen won their second game away at Foxdale.
Croit Lowey has seen some classic games between the two sides and Rushen will need a big performance to beat Peel and their talisman Tommy Brown.
In the other big clash in the league, Laxey head to Ramsey this weekend looking to continue their own winning start in the ‘El-Electrico’ derby (trademark Andy Dalrymple).
Fellow early title contenders Corinthians host Foxdale having started the season in free-scoring fashion and it could be a long afternoon for the miners given their opposing fortunes so far.
Elsewhere St Mary’s host Onchan at the Bowl, Old Boys make the long trip to Ayre in search of their first points and Union Mills host Braddan.
Div 2
It’s the battle of last season’s relegated two in the Ardern & Druggan Division 2 as Marown face St Georges.
Marown have yet to get their first team season underway due to the drop in numbers in the second flight, whereas Geordies lost their opening game to Douglas Royal 7-0.
Top of the table Castletown are also in action at home as they welcome the aforementioned Douglas Royal, while third placed Colby welcome D&D to Station Fields.
The other game in the division sees RYCOB make the long trip south of the Fairy Bridge to Malew.
