Bala Town 0-4 Connah's Quay Nomads: Colin Caton's Bala finished with nine men as they were outplayed by a Nomads side who have struggled for form this season. Callum Morris put Nomads ahead with a third-minute penalty, before Craig Curran, Ryan Harrington and Morris again struck. Any slim Bala hope of some sort of comeback disappeared as Chris Venables and Kieran Smith received their marching orders.

Cefn Druids 0-5 Newtown: Druids' winless run continued as they were hammered at home by Newtown, who repeated the scoreline from when the sides met at Latham Park earlier this season. Aaron Williams led the way with a hat-trick, with a brace from Nick Rushton leaving Druids bottom and 12 points off safety.

Flint Town United 3-1 Penybont: Michael Wilde's 10th goal of the season six minutes before half time gave Flint the lead and Jack Kenny doubled their advantage two minutes shy of the hour mark. Penybont, who had won their last three successive games, were level through James Waite but Kenny's second sealed the win for Flint to maintain their place in second spot, seven points behind New Saints.

The New Saints 6-0 Haverfordwest County: Declan McManus scored a hat-trick as Cymru Premier leaders The New Saints enjoyed their biggest win of the season with victory over Haverfordwest, who are 10th. Ryan Brobbel gave Saints the lead on 29 minutes with a header from Danny Redmond's cross. Ben Clark went close before McManus struck twice in four minutes to extend the home side's lead. Redmond netted from the edge of the box to make it 4-0 with McManus completing his hat-trick with 13 minutes remaining and substitute Dean Ebbe completing the scoring in stoppage time to complete a league double over County.
