The title looks set to go down to the wire, with 4 points separating the top 3. Earl Shilton moved to the top of the table with a 3-0 defeat of Bardon Hill Sports but looked to have ruined their chances after a surprise 1-0 defeat in midweek at struggling Saffron Dynamo. However, if they win their remaining 2 games they cannot be caught by FC Braunstone Victoria, who look likely to finish as runners up in their 1st season, and Holwell Sports, who made sure of at least 3rd place, with a 0-2 away win, in midweek, at Anstey Nomads after Matt Panter hit both the goals and a 0-1 victory at Ellistown.

Narborough and Littlethorpe consolidated 4th spot with a 2-1 defeat of wooden spoonist Cottesmore Amateurs and a double from Callum Gwynne eased Hathern to a 4-2 victory over Huncote Sports and Social, who finish their season second from bottom. Ashby Ivanhoe posted 2 wins in the week, 2-3 at Huncote, where Warren Nichols netted a couple and 1-0 at home to Anstey Nomads, where a late goals secured them all 3 points.
