Penybont vs Newtown today.
It means that one of Caernarfon Town, Penybont or Newtown will compete in ECL-Q1 for Wales; all three clubs have very limited european match experience.

I'm watching it on S4C V Yo-Yo, great match! Caernarfon Town is better imo, bit it looks like Newtown will win it! It will be the second time, after 2018-19, that the club that finished top of the relegation group wins a european spot! From fighting to avoid relegation, to qualifying for european competitions! In 2018-19 it was Cardiff MU!
