Barry Town United 0-1 Aberystwyth Town: Nat Jarvis' goal three minutes from time sealed victory for Barry at Jenner Park. Gavin Chesterfield's side are fourth while Aberystwyth remain in 11th spot, two points clear of the bottom two.
Cefn Druids 1-3 Bala Town: Stefan Edwards gave Druids, who parted company with manager Bruno Lopes during the week, a seventh minute lead. But two Oliver Shannon goals either side of the break and a third from Chris Venables gave third-placed Bala the win.
Flint Town United 0-2 Caernarfon Town: Caernarfon completed a phase one double over struggling Flint to move into temporarily into the top six. Two goals in the space of three second-half minutes from Gareth Edwards and Sion Bradley secured victory at Cae y Castell to leave Flint in the bottom two.
Newtown 4-1 Cardiff Met: Tyrone Ofori and Jordan Evans scored two goals apiece as Newtown ran out comfortable winners over Cardiff Met. Bradley Woolridge had levelled for The Archers, who are four points behind Newtown in ninth spot.
Penybont 0-0 Connah's Quay Nomads: Penybont denied champions and league leaders Connah's Quay a 10th consecutive league win as they kept a third successive clean sheet to maintain their own top six-hopes.
Haverfordwest County 2-1 The New Saints: Haverfordwest beat Saints for the first time since 2004 to go sixth and deal another blow to Saints' title hopes. Corey Shephard put County ahead before Blaine Hudson equalised for second-placed Saints, with Christian Seargeant in charge following Scott Ruscoe's departure. But substitute Cameron Keetch's goal secured the win for Haverfordwest, who handed a full debut to Jazz Richards.

Bala Town 1-3 Connah's Quay Nomads: Connah's Quay came from behind to beat 10-man Bala Town at Maes Tegid. Raul Correia gave the hosts the lead after just one minute, but it was short-lived as George Horan equalised just three minutes later. Callum Morris and Craig Curran scored second-half goals to give Nomads the lead before Bala were reduced to 10 men late on when Jonny Spittle saw red. Nomads remain top with victory while Bala stay third.
Penybont 1-0 Barry Town United: Kane Owen's second-half penalty was the difference as Penybont claimed all three points at Bryntirion Park. The result was exactly the same as when these sides met a week ago, Sam Snaith scoring the winner on that occasion. Penybont have now played four games in a row without conceding, and move above opponents Barry into fourth place in the Cymru Premier.
The New Saints 5-0 Cefn Druids: The New Saints kept pressure on league leaders Connah's Quay with a convincing 5-0 win over bottom side Cefn Druids. Dean Ebbe's first-half brace either side of Jon Routledge's strike put the hosts 3-0 up by half-time. Adrian Cieslewicz's penalty after 49 minutes made it four and Adam Roscrow completed the scoring with 20 minutes left.
