Previews:

Barking v Enfield 1893:

The Blues are hitting some form again under manager Glenn Golby and take on an Enfield side utterly demoralised after there 6-1 home loss to Waltham Forest last weekend.  Can't see anything other than a home win here.

Pete's Prediction: 4-0

Adam's Prediction: 5-0

Tony's Prediction: 5-0

Basildon United v Wadham Lodge:

The Bees will have a difficult challenge as they welcome high flying Wadham Lodge to the Hive on Saturday. Both sides are in good form and both will be confident of a result. It's such a hard one to call but I favour Basildon just only because they have home advantage.

Pete's Prediction: 2-1

Adam's Prediction: This is going to be a great match up both sides in rich veins of form, it is definitely a hard one to call, but I am going to go with my gut instinct and fancy the Londoners to go down there and nick a win. 1-2

Tony's Prediction: 2-2

Bowers & Pitsea v Clapton:

Another big fixture at the weekend sees Michael Walther take his Tons side to title favourites Bowers in what is another tough one to call. Bowers come into this off the back of a tough Vase win whilst Clapton are unbeaten in the league since the opening day. Again due to home form I see Bowers edging this contest just.

Pete's Prediction: 3-2

Adam's Prediction: Clapton seem to be Bowers' bogey team of recent years and for some reason I am expecting the Tons' good run against them to continue. It again will be tight. 2-3

Tony's Prediction: 3-2

Burnham Ramblers v Southend Manor:

Trying to predict a Burnham result recently has been tough after an up and down campaign so far. Manor on the other hand have been unlucky in a few games this season but in Rhys Fatt have one of the inform striker's in the league so will always be a threat up front. Another side story to this game is former Manor keeper Lawrence Priddle dons the gloves for the hosts after his return to football. However I can see the visitors taking the points in this one.

Pete's Prediction: 0-2

Adam's Prediction: 2-1

Tony's Prediction: 2-2

FC Romania v Newham:

Hosts FCR come into this one after a magnificent comeback win in the Vase last weekend and will look to continue their decent league form this term at home to one of the unluckiest teams in the ESL in Newham who have played way better than there lowly league placing suggests. I do expect a home win though.

Pete's Prediction: 2-0

Adam's Prediction: 3-0

Tony's Prediction: 3-1

Ilford v Sawbridgeworth Town:

Another titanic tussle takes place at Cricklefield on Saturday as Ilford hosts league leaders Sawbridgeworth Town. Allan Fenns hosts have been flying high since season and will prove a stern test to Sawbos unbeaten league record this season for sure. I expect that record to still be in tact come 5pm though but also expect Ilford to gain a point.

Pete's Prediction: 1-1

Adam's Prediction: The third game of Super Saturday sees a mouthwatering tie between Fennie's Ilford and Dassy's Sawbo. This again is a huge one to call, but I am going to sit on the fence for this one. 1-1

Tony's Prediction: 1-1

Sporting Bengal v Hullbridge Sports:

Another decent matchup at Mile End sees Sporting Bengal United and Hullbridge Sports lock horns in a mid table clash where there is nothing to choose between the sides. Bridge won 6-0 the last time they visited the Capital but this will be far from easy as the hosts are a very decent outfit under Anwar Uddin this term. I am expecting a draw here.

Pete's Prediction: 2-2

Adam's Prediction: Hullbridge have been in inconsistent form of late, while Sporting seem to be improving every week so I am going to go with a home win here. 3-1

Tony's Prediction: 3-2

Stansted v Tower Hamlets:

Jason Maher takes charge of his first home game for Stansted as they welcome a goof footballing side in Tower Hamlets to Hargrave Park. The hosts have had a somewhat inconsistent season to date and come up against a Hamlets side who have done everything but score in a lot of their games hence there false lowly league position. I expect this to be tight but am expecting Stansteds new boss to pick up a win.

Pete's Prediction: 2-1

Adam's Prediction: To be fair we have not had a lot of luck in front of goal recently, we have played well in a lot of games, and I fancy our luck to change tomorrow, against a Stansted side who look like they could be going through a transitional period. 0-1

Tony's Prediction: 2-1

Takeley v Greenhouse Sports:

Another interesting matchup at Station Road sees Takeley hosts Greenhouse Sports with both sides coming into this one after midweek games. The hosts escaped mile end with a draw on Wednesday whilst Greenhouse defeated Stansted at Coles Park so both teams will be looking to build on that. I have a sneaky feeling Greenhouse will pull of a result here.

Pete's Prediction: 1-2

Adam's Prediction: Fancy a draw here. 2-2

Tony's Prediction: 2-3

Waltham Forest v Eton Manor:

Forest will be boyd by the fact they smashed Enfield 6-1 at Barrows Farm last time out for their first win of the season and no doubt they will be confident of another win at home against Eton Manor who are also recently under a new management team. I can see Forest recording back to back wins for the first time this season with a win here.

Pete's Prediction: 2-0

Adam's Prediction: Interesting game, Eton Manor drew 2-2 with high fliers Clapton last week, but Forest will be full of confidence after last week's win and I fancy them here. 1-0

Tony's Prediction: 2-2

Arsenal v Tottenham:

Pete's Prediction: 4-2

Adam's Prediction: We have to get a response after what happened in Munich, ideally I want to win 50-0 against them lot but it won't happen. Realistically I think we will nick a win, last gasp winner will be crazy, a dream come true (sorry Tone). 1-0

Tony's Prediction: Arsenal will win, but it will be lucky (!) 3-1

Do you have what it takes to take on Adam and Pete, then let us know.
