The New Saints are on the brink of retaining the Cymru Premier title following a 2-0 win over Caernarfon Town on Tuesday evening.
Saints need only a point to secure their 17th title.
Phil Mooney's own goal put Saints ahead in first half stoppage time while substitute Sion Bradley scored late in the game against his former club to seal the win.
Aberystwyth's hopes of avoiding the drop were dealt another blow as they lost 2-1 at Barry Town.
Ieuan Owen continued his rich goalscoring form with Barry's opener and it looked as thpugh Rico Patterson has rescued a precious point for Aber with a minute remaining.
But Eliot Richards' stoppage time winner boosted Barry's play-off hopes and leaves Aberystwyth nine points adrift at the bottom of the table.
Newtown also remain in the relegation zone despite Jason Oswell's late goal cancelling out Rio Dyer's opener for Briton Ferry Llansawel.
The 1-1 draw means Ferry remain above Newtown on goal difference.
In Tuesday's other game in the Play-Off Conference, Connah's Quay Nomads beat landlords Flint Town United 4-0 at the Essity Stadium
