Llanelli Town have been drawn to play Caerau Ely in the FAW Welsh Cup Second Round. The tie, a local derby between two Tier 2 clubs, will be played across the weekend of 16-17 October.
Both sides entered the competition at this stage after receiving a first-round bye as two of last season's four highest-ranked clubs at this level. The draw for the 2026/27 tournament was split into Northern and Southern sections, with Llanelli Town's fixture falling in the South.
It offers a chance for cup progress as the club seeks to turn around its league form. Llanelli Town currently sit 16th in the FAW Championship, with two points from nine games. Their recent results, including a 2-0 defeat to Llantwit Major last Friday, show a run of four consecutive losses.
The upcoming fixture against Caerau Ely will be a rematch of a recent league encounter. Caerau Ely won that match 3-0 on 11 September. Fans can view the full fixtures list and check the club's standings position.
Before the cup tie, Llanelli Town's immediate focus is a home league game against seventh-placed Baglan Dragons this Friday, 2 October.
