Welsh Cup – Friday Night Football at the M&P 3G Arena
Cambrian United return to Welsh Cup action on Friday night as we welcome Penybont FC to the M&P 3G for what promises to be a high-quality and competitive cup tie under the lights.
Cambrian United – Recent Form & Momentum
The Cam Army come into this Welsh Cup tie in strong form and full of confidence. We are currently on a six-game unbeaten run, showing real consistency and resilience across all competitions.
Our most recent results include a 1–1 draw at home to Ammanford and a hard-fought 3–2 away victory against Caerau Ely, displaying both character and attacking quality. Cup performances have been equally impressive , we defeated Briton Ferry in the Nathaniel MG Cup and secured a dominant 6–0 win over Goytre United in the previous round of the Welsh Cup.
There is a growing belief within the squad that this is the perfect moment to continue building momentum. With the backing of the supporters in Clydach Vale, Cambrian will look to take control of the occasion and push for a place in the next round.
The Opposition: Penybont FC
Penybont arrive under the leadership of Manager Rhys Griffiths, one of the most respected figures in Welsh football. Known for intensity, discipline, and attacking structure, Griffiths has built a squad capable of competing with the best.
Their Cup form has been impressive , Penybont booked their place in this round with a dominant 5–0 win over Briton Ferry Llansawel, showing their attacking sharpness and clinical quality.
In the league, they have been inconsistent with two wins and three losses from their last five, but they remain a dangerous and well-organised side.
