CYMS are four points clear of Wellington, who have the bye, leading into this weekend's final round and have gone unbeaten for the past11 rounds.
Coach Tim Ryan has his team firing at the right end of the season and the Fishies have been the standout team of the competition of 2014.
The men in green piled on 90 points last week against Forbes and worryingly for Nyngan they were understrength, with Luke Jenkins and Ainsley Coxsedge returning from injury this week.
Kieran Shipp scored an incredible six tries in that match while Blake Tremain-Cannon ran in five. Both players showed outstanding support play and the way they run off offloads from the forward pack will be a real area of concern for Nyngan.
While the Tigers will have to be vigilant in defence they come into the match with their attack in order as well after defeating Westside 68-12 last week. Nyngan coach Col Wright admitted after the victory he didn't take much away from the game and he was focused on putting on a competitive show against CYMS in the lead up to finals.
Fishies mentor Ryan said he expected a physical encounter at Larkin Oval with the Tigers possessing one of the most parochial home crowds in the competition.
The action at Larkin Oval begins with the under-18s at 11.30am before the first grade match at 2.30pm.
