Barry Town United 0-3 Caernarfon Town: Caernarfon bounced back from their midweek defeat to leaders The New Saints by seeing off a Barry Town side languishing at the wrong end of the table. Zack Clarke and Marc Williams gave the visitors a comfortable half-time lead, before Adam Davies gave the scoreline added gloss.

Colwyn Bay 2-2 Cardiff Met: In a closely contested game, Stefan Edwards gave Colwyn Bay the lead after just six minutes but Met were soon level through Chris Craven's penalty. In a topsy-turvy second half on a heavy pitch following persistent rain, Brandon Diau restored Bay's lead with his first goal for the club but was then unfortunate to put into his own net four minutes later.

Haverfordwest County 3-0 Aberystwyth Town: County moved towards mid-table by beating bottom side Aberystwyth, who were unable to follow up Wednesday's first league win of the season. Rhys Abbruzzese broke the deadlock soon after half-time, with Kai Whitmore's quick-fire double putting the result beyond doubt.

Newtown 1-0 Bala Town: Newtown extended their winning run to six games with a narrow victory against a Bala side who suffered a third successive league defeat, Aaron Williams' goal proving the difference between the two sides.

The New Saints 4-0 Pontypridd United: Saints cruised to their eighth win of the season as the unbeaten league leaders consigned Pontypridd to a fifth league game without a win. Ryan Brobbel, Ben Clark and Jordan Williams scored before half-time, with Clark grabbing a second after the break.

Connah's Quay Nomads 4-2 Penybont: Nomads remain two point behind leaders The New Saints after ending Penybont's three-match winning league run. Jordan Davies and Jack Kenny put the hosts 2-0 at the break with the former adding a second. Chris Venables and Daniel Jeffries hit back for the visitors, but Ryan Harrington sealed Nomads' win.
