The Bears are at home to Valentine Phoenix, while the Hornets are away to Kahibah FC.
Both teams go into the games full of confidence coming off strong wins last weekend.
Weston, in particular, would have to be happy with their effort in knocking over high flying Edgeworth 2-1 at home on Sunday.
It comes off the back of a win over Charlestown City the previous round and they suddenly find themselves near the top of the ladder.
The Hornets too continued their hot recent foprm, triumphant over the Thornton Redbacks 1-0 on Sunday.
They're back to within two points of fourth place and, on current form, realistically eyeing finals football.
Maitland Magpies also go into action tonight.
The winners of each match will progress to the State Qualifiers at Lake Macquarie Regional Football Facility along with the two remaining sides from the Northern Conference, Bangalow Bluedogs and Boambee Bombers, on the June long weekend, 8th - 10th.
Tonight's matches are:
Kahibah FC vs. Cessnock City Hornets FC - 7pm at Kahibah Oval
Weston Bears FC vs. Valentine Phoenix FC - 7pm at Rockwell Automation Park
New Lambton FC vs. Edgeworth Eagles FC - 7pm at Alder Park
