Manager Lee Annunziata is hoping that his St Martins side have enough firepower to see off Sidmouth Town on Saturday.
The Saints have impressed following their promotion in the summer and, with Walter C Parson Cup games occupying most sides, they have a chance to further climb the table as one of only two league games taking place on Saturday.
Annunziata knows Vikings manager Josh Stunnell well having managed with him previously, so he knows better than to take any result for granted.
"We have scored 15 goals in our last three games and conceded just one, so we are on fire and we are a threat," Annunziata said.
"We are in cracking form. I know they are second from bottom but we beat a very good Liverton side. They have some decent players.
"I have not gone defensively but attacking because I believe that we have got goals in us.
"But I know they will be dangerous as I know Josh well. He is a friend of mine and we did the Devon & Exeter team for a while together too, so it will be a tough game."
St Martins head into the game having won 6-1 at Liverton United in the Devon Premier Cup on Saturday.
Dax Vincent (2), Dylan Dare, Andy Brooks, Kevin Pike and Danny Pym scored the goals.
Sidmouth lost 3-2 at home to Plymouth Marjon, despite a double from Dale O'Donohue.
Although Annunziata has Ross Carstairs back from suspension, he will be without injured skipper Lee Parker.
"It is a massive blow for us," confirmed Annunziata. "But the lads who have stepped in for him so far have been brilliant."
Elsewhere, Exeter University manager Dave Evans says he is looking forward to testing his side against higher-league opponents when they travel to Cullompton Rangers on Saturday.
The Students are another side to have made a fine start to the campaign.
They kept it up with a 5-1 away success at Fremington on Saturday in the Devon Premier Cup, with Josh Higgins hitting two before Peter Beadle, Toby Yeates and Ben Mogg wrapped it up.
And Evans believes that the pressure will be firmly on the shoulders of their hosts.
"It will be good to see where we are against a side from a higher division," he said. "It should be a good battle.
"We are playing quite well at the moment and scoring goals. Cully are doing very well in the Premier Division but I think we go in with no pressure on us.
"They will be the favourites as the higher-league club and the home side, but is probably to our advantage.
"It means there is less pressure on us. Of course we want to win it, and we believe we can win it, but the pressure will be on them."
A blow for Evans is that his two central defenders, Louis Bouwers and Al Gomez, are both injury doubts.
"That's not great, but we are doing well and are really pleased with the start to the season. We've never had a start like this, ever," Evans continued. "Quite a few of the players are leaving at the end of this season so I think they want to make it a special one because their attitude has been superb. There is so much focus on what they are doing in training and on Saturdays too."
