Fijiana leads the standings after four rounds with 20 points, after gaining the maximum five points from four matches.
The NSW Waratahs women's side are in the second spot with 15 points, while the Queensland Reds are third with 14 points.
Last week Fijiana beat the Waratahs, who had won the four previous titles since the inception of the competition 2018.
The Fijiana Drua will face either the Waratahs or the Reds in the final in two weeks' time.
Coach Senirusi Seruvakula said it was important to end the pool games with a win.
"We are not going to treat the Brumbies lightly. We are just going to play just the way we have been playing week in and week out."
"We stick to our game pattern and have the confidence in what we have been doing," Seruvakula said.
"Offloads and being very supportive on the field and maintain discipline.
"We want to win and winning comes with hard work and that's the focus this week."
He added that the team has been told not to let previous wins go to their heads and to stay humble.
"The message has been to keep on working hard, to reflect on the games that we have played, cut down the mistakes, and be humble at all times," he said.
"Not to be big-headed that we have been winning games.
"This week is a very important one. We want to top the table but we need to do the process first during the week so that they can have their focus on the game on Saturday."
