Barry Town United will be looking to respond to a drop in form recently in the Genero Adran U19s Premier Conference, when they host new league leaders Cardiff City at Jenner Park on Friday night.
Despite a well taken strike from Aliya Hull last week, it was Briton Ferry Llansawel to secure all three points at Llandarcy. Manon Thomas gave Ferry the lead early on, before setting up Gwennan Folkes for the winner in a 2-1 victory.
It was a statement win for The Linnets the last time they played Cardiff, but things have changed since then, with The Bluebirds now top of the pack in the Premier Conference, albeit the leader of this league chances every week.
Eliza Keane’s goal with half hour played was enough for a 1-0 win against Pontypridd United at USW Sports Park, the first win of the season against Ponty for Tom Stiley’s side.
Pontypridd make the long trip North to Wrexham on Saturday, in the first ever meeting between the two sides in the U19s League.
A 3-2 win against Barry two weeks ago saw Wrexham go top of the group, something they’ll be looking to achieve again in the upcoming games.
Carmarthen Town’s fixture with The New Saints has been postponed this week.
Wrexham vs Connah’s Quay Nomads was postponed last week. The Nomads next play on 2nd May against Pontypridd United.
Briton Ferry do play this week, but in a Genero Adran U19s South fixture, which was originally postponed. Taffs Well are the visitors for that one, with The Wellwomen coming into the game on the back of a 3-2 win against Penybont in the Championship Conference.
Ruby Spear scored a hattrick on Taffs Well’s way to the victory. Seren Morgan and Mae Taylor were on the scoresheet for Penybont, but it wouldn’t be enough.
The only game to be played in the Championship Conference this week sees Aberystwyth Town travel to Cardiff Met.
Having travelled with just eight players, The Seasiders put in a respectable performance against Llanelli Town last week, but were narrowly defeated in a 2-1 loss.
Kiana Davies and Maia Lewis scored the decisive goals for Llanelli. Rebecca Mathias responded for Aber.
Met go into the fixture with Aber having snatched a late point against Cascade YC last week. Trinity Reakes fired Cascade ahead inside 13 minutes at Ystrad Mynach.
Hattie Roulston equalised for Met, before Allesha Cake put Cascade back ahead with less than 20 minutes to play. When it looked like the hosts would be set to claim all three points, Neve Powell found a leveller with seconds to play.
