TNS and Newtown hit the road tonight as the JD Cymru Premier season reaches its climax.

The Saints have little to play for with the title long secured ahead of tonight's trip to Bala Town.

However Newtown make the trip to Penybont knowing only three points will do in their bid to secure European football for a second successive season.

TNS coach Anthony Limbrick said: "We were disappointed to lose to Newtown so it was pleasing to get back to winning ways at Caernarfon on Friday.

"We kept a clean sheet and also gave another academy player his senior debut so that was also very pleasing."

Limbrick insisted the Saints were not taking their foot off the pedal.

"We want to end the season with as many points on the board as possible," said Limbrick. "The last few games have been a little disappointing with the draw against Penybont and defeat against Newtown.

"However the performance and reaction was right on Friday night."

Limbrick insisted Bala Town would provide a stern test despite the Lakesiders' poor record against the Saints.

"They have attacking players who can hurt you so we will have to play well and we fully expect a very tough game," said Limbrick.

Meanwhile Newtown travel to Bridgend in a game the Robins must take something from to maintain their pursuit of a top three finish.

Manager Chris Hughes praised his side after overcoming Flint Town United 2-1 last week with the Robins aided after a moment of madness from Flint's Alex Jones earned him a red card.

Hughes said: "We started off well in the first 10-15 minutes, we scored a well worked goal and then Flint came into it a little bit with some decent chances.

“We lost a little bit of control through silly errors, unforced errors, but we finished half strongly and made it 2-0.

"We changed the shape at half time but we’ve conceded a really sloppy goal. It’s 2-1 and it’s game on and obviously the sending off happened and it allowed us to get a little bit more control back.

“The only thing we didn’t do which we should have done was take our opportunities, we created some really good chances but we didn’t take them.”

Hughes insisted with just five games remaining it was all about results now.

He added: "You had to follow up the win last Friday night at TNS otherwise that win doesn’t mean a great deal.

"It was a scrappy and bitty performance but we ground it out and didn’t really look in any real danger towards the end of the game, we kept the ball well and run the game down well.”
