Flint Town United travel to Ynys Park to face Trefelin in a Premier League fixture on Friday evening. The match, which kicks off at 19:45, offers a chance for the Silkmen to arrest a recent slide in form.

Their most recent outing was a 3-1 home defeat to Caernarfon Town in the Welsh Cup last Saturday. That result followed a 1-0 league loss to Colwyn Bay, leaving the team with a record of two wins and three defeats in their last five outings. The team's defensive record of 25 goals conceded in those 13 league games is a key concern, with the goals often arriving in clusters; they have let in three goals in a match on five separate occasions this season.

Trefelin’s recent form

Trefelin approach the game with mixed results from their own schedule. They secured a 3-1 away win against Cardiff MET earlier this month but were held to a 1-1 draw at Briton Ferry in September. Their last home league game ended in a 3-1 defeat to champions The New Saints. Currently positioned in the lower half of the table, Trefelin have struggled for consistency, mirroring their opponents' challenges.

Flint Town United’s recent form

Flint's form has been inconsistent, with victories over Haverfordwest County and Ammanford AFC punctuated by heavy losses to Airbus UK and The New Saints. The team has conceded 25 goals in 13 league games this season, a defensive issue highlighted in the cup defeat. Their two league victories this campaign were both narrow, 1-0 wins.

Team news and lineups

Both sides are expected to field strong lineups. Flint's last starting eleven against Colwyn Bay featured Flint in goal, with a defence including Dean and Burke. The midfield was anchored by Mendes and Owolabi, supporting forwards Malkin and Wilson. Trefelin's last lineup included Coughlan in goal and attackers Aman and Owen. Any changes to the squad will be assessed ahead of kick-off.

Flint Town United's next assignment is a home match against Holywell on 30 October. Holywell currently occupy 16th place in the Premier League table. Fans can view the full fixture list for the remainder of the season.
