Zane has a full squad available, with goalkeeper Zac Bowling the only likely replacement for Nath Cavaliere (finger), ahead of Saturday's clash with the Magpies at Cooks Square Park (3pm).
Broadmeadow (nine points) have played five matches so far, the most of any club in the men's NNSW National Premier League following a heavily rain-affected start to the season.
"A game in hand doesn't mean three points so any chance we've got to play and jump a team we'll take it," Zane said.
The Magpies (10) have three outings in eight days with Magic followed by joint leaders Charlestown (10) next weekend. They also have an Australia Cup tie at home on Tuesday.
"This will show us where we're at," Maitland coach Michael Bolch said.
Saturday's fixture between Lambton and Olympic has been washed out.
Sunday sees Valentine visit Weston (2pm) and Cooks Hill welcome Lakes (3:30pm).
Edgeworth has the bye.
In the women's NNSW NPL, Azzurri host Warners Bay on Saturday (3:40pm).
Sunday sees Adamstown travel to Maitland (3:40pm) and Olympic face Mid Coast at Darling Street Oval (3:40pm).
Broadmeadow and New Lambton were going head-to-head on Friday night (8pm).
