BOX Hill Hawks will be out to maintain their winning form with two games to play before finals.

The ladder-leading Hawks will take on the Northern Blues at Preston City Oval on Saturday afternoon.

A win for the Hawks against the 14th-placed Blues will all but make certain of a top-two finish.

Fifteen Hawthorn-listed players have been named in Box Hill's 27-player squad.

Tim O'Brien returns after missing the Hawks' 50-point win against Geelong, as does James Siciliy from a hand injury, while utility Daniel Howe returns after starting as the sub in Hawthorn's Round 20 win.

2014 Hawthorn premiership teammates Taylor Duryea and Will Langford will also line-up again for the club's VFL affiliate, while tall forwards Sam Grimley and Shem Tatupu will be out to continue their strong form after combining for ten goals last week.
