The Old Parish are just a win away from clinching the league title, but know they are in for a tough task against Loughor on Saturday.

“The Plate is a trophy we want to win and we are fully committed to going all the way to the Millennium Stadium on 8 May.”

Maesteg are 17 points clear at the top of Division 2 West having losst only once in 18 outings to date this season. Loughor are down in sixth place.
