In the six-a-side Orana Floor Sanding Division 1, table-topping Gremlins will take on fourth-placed Dubbo Pest Control.
Andrew Walden will skipper the Gremlins with the likes of Mark McCauley and Dean Welbourne crucial to the sides chances.
Darren Davies will lead his DPC crew, with himself and Bailey Edmunds shaping as the players to watch.
In the other match, second-placed Tropical Thunder and third placed SWAT Misfits will do battle for the other spot in the decider.
James Munro, Josh John and Shane Tonkin headline in a strong Tropical outfit, with SWAT boasting the likes of Ben Hocking and Mark Raines.
In the Tilepower Division 2 of six-a-side, Global Accounting will take on Toddys in what should be a hard-fought contest.
In their two match-ups this season, it is one-all, so expect a close one.
Sam Pay and Logan Beckenham will be key players for Global, while Toddys will look to Adlai Shipp and Aeddan Todhunter for guidance.
The heavily experienced Nunfa will do battle with Shane Herron's Tilepower.
Nunfa will need big games from Nathan Merchant and John Bonney if they are to win, while Tilepower have young gun master blaster Angus Cusack and Adam Burton as their danger men.
In the eight-a-side competition, Actron Ants have advanced to the Turf Care Division 1 Final after finishing first.
They will have to wait patiently as Cameron Herd's CCC Cubs take on Nick Richardson's Slappers.
CCC, alongside Actron, have been the front runners in this competition with players like Tom Barber, Tom Atlee and Craig Pettit making them a side capable of causing some serious carnage.
Slappers also have some batsman that know how to hit a big ball, with Jono Marks, Kevin Newbold and Josh Dennis players that certainly live up to them team name.
Don Way Bitumen have finished on top of the Country Car Carrying Division 2 table and will therefore go straight through to the grand final.
They will pay close attention to the Orana Floor Sanding (OFS) and Canals game this week, with the winner set to meet them in the big one.
Canals have played their fair share of finals over the years, while OFS are no stranger to the business end of the season, with both teams having been around for along time, and full of experience.
Young gun Mitch Lincoln will be important for OFS as will Andy Gardiner, while Mark Dee and Ben Luck will carry a fair work load for the Canals men.
This one is too close to call, and should be a fantastic game.
