The Flying Titans clash with the Nxled Chameleons at 2 p.m., while the Foxies collide with the F2 Logistics Cargo Movers at 4 p.m.

The Highrisers, for their part, square off with the Cignal HD Spikers in the 6 p.m. nightcap.

Toting a 3-1 win-loss record, a victory for Choco Mucho would not only extend its winning run to four games but would also untangle themselves from a three-way tie it shares with Chery Tiggo and PLDT at third place.

The win would also put the Flying Titans half a game behind pacesetters Petro Gazz and Creamline, which shared the helm with clean 4-0 slates.

Out to lead Choco Mucho are Sisi Rondina, Caitlyn Viray and Bea De Leon, who conspired for 37 points in their 25-21, 25-16, 25-20 triumph over Galeries Tower last Tuesday, Nov. 2, in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

In contrast, Nxled seeks to stop its three-game slide that put them at 1-3 near the bottom standings with Lycha Ebon, Chiara Permentilla and Krich Macaslang expected to banner its assault.

In the other matchup, Farm Fresh hopes to crawl out of a 0-5 hole while erasing the memory of its recent 25-23, 23-25, 25-20, 25-17 loss to Cignal.

The young trio of Trisha Tubu, Kate Santiago and Rizza Cruz are slated to banner the Foxies anew against the veteran Cargo Movers, who are looking at regaining their bearing to improve their 2-2 card following a 25-22, 27-25, 25-14 defeat against the Petro Gazz Angels a week ago.

Like Farm Fresh, Galeries Tower hopes to see the light at the end of the tunnel after stumbling in its first four assignments.

But it was easier said than done as the Highrisers are facing the HD Spikers, who are looking at hiking their 2-2 mark in the middle standings.
