In an attempt to sustain their playoff chances, Penybont is preparing to welcome Pentypridd, who are at the bottom of the league, at The SDM Glass Stadium. This is for the second-to-last round of the regular season in the Welsh top-flight, which will take place on Sunday.
Penybont vs Pontypridd Betting Tips: Penybont to Win
Rhys Griffiths’ team finally broke their unfortunate streak of six consecutive games without a win, as they demolished Cardiff Metropolitan, who were in fourth place. They secured a decisive 3-0 victory on the opponent’s home ground.
Pen-y-Bont has broken their victory drought since November 4th by scoring their 25th point in the domestic campaign, rekindling their hopes of reaching the top six as the regular phase nears its end.
The boys in blue have only managed to secure a slim point from a potential 12 in their last four home games. They know they need to quickly recover from their recent slump if they have any hopes of making a comeback.
Luckily, this year’s Conference League qualification round contenders have a great chance to delight their loyal fans. They get to host the team that is at the bottom of the top tier in Welsh football.
Indeed, Pontypridd’s bottom ranking is due to a six-point penalty from the football association. However, with a smooth 2-0 victory over fellow relegation-zone contender Aberystwyth, they are now moving into the second-to-last round.
Nonetheless, the Dragons continue to struggle with their away games, returning home without any wins from six out of their last seven trips. They have let in a staggering 12 goals in their last four league defeats away from home.
With an away attack that appears blunt, finding the back of the net only twice in the last seven Cymru Premier travels, we believe Pontypridd lacks the potential to threaten Penybont, who should fully capitalize on home advantage to secure the entire haul and continue their surge towards breaking into the top six.

Penybont team news
Ecstatic about the performance of his chosen ones, who utterly dismantled the fourth-placed Cardiff Metropolitan with a convincing 3-0 triumph in the latest Cymru Premier outing, coach Rhys Griffiths should once again rely on that winning formula.
The seasoned 38-year-old forward, Chris Venables, who has netted an impressive 11 goals in 14 league matches, has mysteriously missed the last four consecutive games, posing a considerable void in the lineup.

As for the visitors, they are unable to call on Jack Caradogan who is still recovering from a knee injury picked up at the start of November, and is set to be the only absentee for the bottom-placed Welsh top-flight side.
The 26-year-old midfielder Corey Shephard is also ruled out for the penultimate league affair of the regular campaign after picking up his second yellow card of the season in a 2-0 victory over Aberystwyth.
