Their 16-6 win over Division 1 East Central leaders Glamorgan Wanderers in round three earned them a clash with Resolven, who are currently lying in second place in Division 2 West Central. Brynmawr, who completed the league and cup double last season, currently sit on top of Division 1 East and beat Blackwood (68-17) and Llangennech (41-0) in the earlier rounds.
Another Division 1 East side, two-time champions Penallta, face a tricky away trip to Pwllheli, while the unbeaten leaders of Division 1 North, Llandudno, will host Nelson. The Goats have won all nine league games this season and last weekend added the scalp of Blaenavon (23-6) to those of Maesteg Celtic (50-5) and Ruthin (29-18) in the Plate.
Two-time winners Ammanford will have home advantage over another unbeaten side this season, Glynneath, while there could be a repeat of this weekend’s Division 1 East Central clash between Rhiwbina and Rumney if the latter can beat Brecon in their rearranged game on 22 December.
That will be the date for the other postponed fixture to be played, between Penoced and Seven Sisters. The winners of that one will host Treorchy.
