Preview

Match preview

The New Saints welcome Colwyn Bay to Park Hall in matchday 5 of the Premier League season. The hosts enter the contest in formidable defensive form, sitting second in the table with 10 points from four matches and having kept clean sheets in every league outing so far with an 8-0 aggregate goal difference.

Colwyn Bay occupy ninth place with seven points from four matches (two wins, one draw, and one loss). While they have shown solid form at home, their travels have been more challenging, recording a 2-2 draw at Ammanford AFC and a 3-0 defeat at Caernarfon Town, leaving them with an average of 2.5 goals conceded per away fixture.

Head-to-head history favours The New Saints, who have claimed six victories in the past eight meetings between the sides. Although Colwyn Bay managed a 2-0 away win in their most recent encounter in March 2026, the hosts' flawless defensive record this campaign makes them strong favourites on home turf.
