- Moving to lanes 19&20, 2nd-place Team 5 will socialize with 1st-place Pop Gunns. Team 5 might perform weakly, but split the series with Pop Gunns; while Pop Gunns ought to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
- Finally, on lanes 21&22, 4th-place Team 6 will challenge 5th-place UnaBowlers. Team 6 is predicted to watch their averages take a plunge, but split the series with the UnaBowlers; while the UnaBowlers are anticipated to see their team average take a dive while they keep the series tied.
