Bala Town v Newtown

Town currently sit comfortably in 5th place and will be looking to close the 2 point gap on Bangor City with a win against the mid-Walians.

Bala have gained 7 out of a possible 9 points over the last three matches with wins against Afan Lido and Carmarthen and a 2-2 draw against league leaders TNS and have been able to open a 6 point gap between ourselves and Prestatyn in 6th place.

Last Saturday Town for the 1st time in four attempts came back with 3 points from Richmond Park to keep us in a great position for the league split.

Defender Mike Byron secured the points came back to Maes Tegid with a superb volley from a Peter Doran corner in the 66th minute.

Newtown last weekend suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Aberystwyth which left them 11th with 6 points.

When the Lakesiders travelled to Latham Park in the 3rd game of the season, Town were 2-0 winners with Stephen Brown and Chris Mason the scorers to send the Lakesiders to top of the league.

Manager Colin Caton will have a selection headache again this week with a fully fit squad with John Irving returning to full fitness.

Kickoff 7.30p.m.
