A number of teams can still make the knock-out stages of the competition, while others are looking to avoid relegation. In group one, reigning champions Adare boast a 100% record, winning all four of their group games to date.
Just behind them, on six points, is city side Monaleen who got back to winning ways last week against Oola following their round three defeat to Father Casey's.
The Abbeyfeale side sit third in the table, occupying the other quarter-final spot. Oola and Rathkeale, make up the chasing pack just behind Casey's on three points each, both sides are still well in the mix to claim a quarter-final berth.
Na Piarsaigh sit at the foot of the table and are set to be involved in the relegation play-offs.
Last year's beaten finalists Newcastle West sit top of group two, level on points with Mungret St Paul's.
Last week's round of fixtures in this group ensured that the fight for those all important quarter-final spots goes to the final series of group games.
Kildimo-Pallaskenry got the better of St Kieran's in Askeaton, running out 10-point winners, while Galtee Gaels came back from 12 points down to earn a draw with Newcastle West and clinical Mungret overcame Ballylanders in Bruff.
That result confirmed Ballylanders’ participation in this year's relegation play-offs. At the top of the table, Newcastle West and Mungret sit on six points, with St Kieran's sitting just behind them in third place on five points.
Kildimo-Pallaskenry's victory over St Kieran's puts them back in the mix for a quarter-final berth, as they sit on four points. Galtee Gaels' comeback draw against Newcastle keeps them in the hunt for a quarter-final spot, sitting on three points.
The last round of fixtures in this group will be crucial to teams’ prospects in the SFC.
