The "Oilmen" sit fifth in the relegation group with just two rounds left in the season. After 23 matches, ENPPI have collected 25 points and currently hold a four-point cushion over the drop zone. However, their glaring weakness remains in attack—only 16 goals scored in 23 games.

ZED, meanwhile, have performed reasonably well in the relegation group, but recent slips could cost the "Army Men" their top spot in the standings. Across 23 rounds, ZED have secured six wins and suffered five defeats, totaling 30 points.
