Despite winning their last two games in a row, Essendon VFL face a 'do-or-die' clash against the Northern Blues on Saturday afternoon.
The team sit tenously in eighth position one game clear of Richmond VFL with only one game to play in the regular season.
Here's how the situation will play out for the Bombers.
Richmond had a hard fought out win against Sandringham last week and come up a well rested Coburg outfit.
For the Bombers, they will benefit from the return of the experienced hands of Ryan Crowley and Mark Jamar who have both been named in the side.
The game kicks off at 11am Saturday at Windy Hill.
It is possible to make both games of footy this weekend and you can plan your journey using the PTV website.
