Competition: Wales Premier League
Date: Fri 18.October
Match begins: 19:00 (UTC)
Venue: Richmond Park (3000 seats)

Season ticket holders at Richmond Park haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Carmarthen Town languishing in the 12th position so far. The guesting Aberystwyth Town will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Aberystwyth Town have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 12-7-19 (win-draw-loss) from 38 matches.

Carmarthen Town form and stats

0 victories, 1 draw and 4 defeats. That’s what Carmarthen Town, who have the fewest points (1) at home in Premier League, have to build on here at Richmond Park in the Premier League. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Carmarthen Town, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

The fans are hoping that Carmarthen Town will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Premier League game against Bala Town (placed 3rd). Ahead of that match, Carmarthen Town lost 1-2 at home to Connah's Quay.

Carmarthen Town are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 6 goals in 5 attempts. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Carmarthen Town having conceded 13 goals here at Richmond Park so far.
