this brief news about some matches from welsh-premier site

Welshpool v Port Talbot
But the Welshpool's European dreams have suffered a double blow with exit from the Welsh Cup followed by a shock 2-0 defeat at struggling Caernarfon on Saturday.

Rhyl v Bangor
Biggest crowd of the day is likely to be at Belle Vue where North Wales coast rivals Rhyl and Bangor clash. The home side can go a long way towards cementing second place, while only pride is at stake for the Citizens, who have improved into seventh place under manager Steve Bleasdale.
A measure of the changes at Farrar Road is that only captain Paul O'Neill, Martin Beattie and Mike Walsh remain from the squad of 15 named for last season's 4-1 defeat at Belle Vue, but all three are likely to miss out through injury. Dave Cameron will debutise for the Lillies if Andy Moran fails a fitness test on an injured hamstring picked-up in the 2-0 win at Airbus, while keeper John Gann misses out again due to a family bereavement with Paul Whitfield taking the gloves.

Haverfordwest v The New Saints
Leaders The New Saints are at Haverfordwest for the first of two away games in the south - they travel on to Gwent after the game for Wednesday night's fixture at Cwmbran Town - needing a maximum of 10 points from six remaining games to become champions for a third successive season.

Newtown v Airbus
At least five clubs have now been dragged into the relegation struggle and Newtown's home game with Airbus is a genuine six-pointer. Both have played two games more than bottom club Cwmbran, who are just three points behind but face a difficult away trip to Aberystwyth.

Llanelli v Caersws
Caersws could also find themselves dangerously close to the drop if they fail to gain anything from their visit to Llanelli while Caernarfon will look to build on Saturday's win when they host NEWI Cefn Druids.

Porthmadog v Carmarthen
Porthmadog have Clayton Blackmore and Rhys Roberts available again as they host Carmarthen at The Traeth in the day's other game, but Les Davies faces a late fitness check.
