Newtown 0-2 Connah's Quay Nomads: Nomads cemented their spot in the Championship Conference with victory over already-secure Newtown. Goals from Callum Morris and Jamie Mullan ensured victory at Latham Park, although Craig Harrison's side have the threat of a significant points deduction hanging over their season.

Bala Town 2-2 Aberystwyth Town: Bala will be relieved their top six status was already settled after throwing away a two goal lead against Aberystwyth. The hosts led through a thunderbolt strike from Will Evans followed by Nathan Peate's close range effort. Aber hit back five minutes from time when Owain Jones tapped in on the rebound, while Jamie Veale's stoppage time free-kick earned them a point.

Barry Town United 1-2 Caernarfon Town: Caernarfon's win was not enough to secure their top six place after Connah's Quay's victory over Newtown. Mike Hayes gave them an early lead at Jenner Park, while Jordan Cotterill equalised for Barry before Hayes restored Caernarfon's lead.

Cardiff Met 1-1 The New Saints: Saints will start the second phase of the season with a 21-point lead at the top of the Cymru Premier. Defender Blaine Hudson headed home his fifth goal of the season to give Saints the lead, but they had to settle for a draw after Joe Evans' stoppage-time effort. The game was played at the FAW's Dragon Park due to storm damage at Met's Cyncoed ground.

Cefn Druids 0-2 Haverfordwest County: Haverfordwest won the battle of the bottom two sides thanks to two first half goals. Touray Sissay put County ahead with a tap in from Elliott Scotcher's free-kick before Jack Wilson doubled their advantage two minutes later with a spectacular strike from 25 yards. County remain 11th, but only a point from safety, while Druids are now 21 points adrift at the bottom.

Penybont 1-1 Flint Town United: Second-placed Penybont took the lead after two minutes through Nathan Wood, but Michael Wilde's penalty secured a point for Neil Gibson's side, who are fourth at the season's halfway point.
