Haverfordwest County and Newtown will put their three-match winning streaks on the line when they meet at Latham Park on Sunday.

The Bluebirds have been in good form of late, with their most recent success coming against Penybont at the Ogi Bridge Meadow last Friday, as goals from Elliott Dugan and Jamie Veale helped County to a 2-1 win.

The Robins are also in a rich vein of form, and the similarities between the sides are demonstrated by the fact that only goal difference separates them heading into Sunday’s contest.

Tony Pennock’s men currently occupy seventh in the standings, with Chris Hughes’ side eighth. A win for the Bluebirds could see them climb into the top six as the race for the Championship Conference begins to heat up.
