Meanwhile, Cardiff Met finished phase one in seventh on 12 points, with their final game ending in a 2-2 draw against Wrexham at The Rock.

The last meeting between the teams came in the last game of 2023 (December 17th) at Park Hall in the Adran Premier, where The Saints won 4-1.

In the last meeting between the sides in Cardiff (September 24th), a highly entertaining affair in South Wales ended in a 4-4 draw.

Looking at the league table, the Oswestry-based team currently lead the Archers by five points heading into phase two.
