The Lakesiders make the short trip to The Oval this evening, with both sides putting their unbeaten start to the league on the line, having picked up seven points each in the opening three fixtures.
The Town go into tonight's match following a hard-fought victory against Connah's Quay Nomads last Friday, with the Lakesiders defending resolutely until the final whistle.
The Canaries would win back to back league games to kick start their season, before a 96th minute equaliser from Haverfordwest County this past weekend would send the Cofi's back up North with just a point.

Danger Man
Adam Davies - The 26 year old joined Caernarfon from Airbus UK this summer, and has already made a big impact on the pitch for the Cofi's. Davies has already netted three goals in three appearances in all competitions, having scored in the Canaries' Nathaniel MG Cup defeat to Porthmadog, and opened his league account up on the opening day, as he grabbed two goals and an assist against Colwyn Bay. Despite being red carded on MD2, Davies will be back for tonight's game after serving his one match suspension against Haverfordwest County. The Welshman will surely be looking to add to his tally having had a rest last weekend.
Previous Meetings
It's been advantage Lakesiders in recent meetings between the two sides, having won our last five meetings against the Canaries, with four league victories and a Nathaniel MG Cup triumph last season. The last time the Cofi's captured the three points was in the 2020/21 season in a 3-0 victory, with Bala already having secured European football the previous fixture. The most recent meeting between the two was a 3-0 win for the Town, as George Newell, Adam Roscrow and Chris Venables netted a goal each to secure victory at Maes Tegid.
