Will Manchester Thunder or London Mavericks mount a challenge to early runaway Netball Super League leaders London Pulse?
The teams sitting third and fourth in the NSL table meet on Monday evening and you can watch the game live on the BBC in the UK.
Both have four wins from six so far, while Pulse extended their 100% record to seven games on Sunday with a 67-52 win against Cardiff Dragons.
One match in every round of the regular season is being broadcast on the BBC as part of a two-year deal with the NSL.
Matches are available to watch live on BBC iPlayer and on the BBC Sport website and app, as well as on demand.
The season began on Friday, 14 March and ends with the Grand Final at London's O2 Arena on 6 July.
The 2025 campaign marks a relaunch for the league as it moves towards full professionalisation.
Eight teams make up the division - reduced from 10 last season - with the top four progressing to the semi-finals in June. Nottingham Forest and Birmingham Panthers are making their NSL debuts after Team Bath, Surrey Storm, Severn Stars and Strathclyde Sirens were left out of the revamped league.
New rules have also been introduced for 2025, including the super shot - an opportunity to score two-point goals from a certain area of the shooting circle in the last five minutes of each quarter - and tactical timeouts.
Sky Sports will broadcast three matches every week, meaning all four matches in each round will be available to watch live.
