Bala Town

  • Competition: Wales &— Cymru Premier
  • Date: Wednesday, 18th, October 2023
  • Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20.45 CEST
  • Venue: Essity Stadium (Flint)

Connah’s, the current frontrunners, will be aiming to secure a victory against Bala Town at Essity Stadium on Wednesday for Matchday 12 of the Cymru Premier, in their efforts to keep up with The New Saints.

After a magnificent winning streak of eight consecutive victories, the Nomads faced a setback recently when they failed to convert their numerous opportunities, resulting in a 1-1 draw against Aberystwyth Town during their away match. This marked the first tie of the season for Neil Gibson’s team, allowing the Welsh powerhouse TNS to further extend their lead at the top of the standings, a feat they accomplished successfully. Currently, Connah’s Quay, the reigning national champions from the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons, find themselves trailing the current leaders by four points, having accumulated a total of 25 points from their 11 matches played so far.

Bala Town will approach the midweek clash with a sense of satisfaction as they secured a well-deserved 2-1 home victory against Colwyn Bay in their last match. This win is significant as it marks their first success in the top tier of Welsh football since September 2nd, ending a winless streak of seven matches (2 draws, 5 losses) since then. The three points earned have allowed the Gwynedd-based club to maintain their playoff zone position. However, they need to be cautious as they currently sit above seventh-placed Cardiff Metropolitan only due to a better goal difference. Bala Town has collected 16 points from 11 rounds of the Cymru Premier.

Connah’s Quay vs Bala Town Betting Tips: Connah’s to Win

Connah’s Quay, as a team aiming to win the title and dethrone the undisputed ruler of Welsh football, TNS, simply cannot afford the luxury of consecutive mistakes. Therefore, Neil Gibson’s lads will be firing on all cylinders in Wednesday’s clash to quickly get back on the winning track. One can’t help but notice that the Nomads are an indomitable force when they grace their home turf, converting every single one of their six home matches into resounding wins, while scoring an imposing 21 goals along the way. Connah’s Quay, aware that Bala Town, alongside The New Saints, inflicted defeat upon them during the current campaign, will be seeking ruthless vengeance. This actually seems like a highly plausible scenario, given that the Lakesiders have performed abysmally on their travels, losing three in a row and finding the net only once in their last four away outings. Taking into account the entirety of the circumstances, and recognizing the Nomads’ fervor to remain in the title race, the hosts should be relentless in their pursuit of three vital points this Wednesday.
