Airbus UK have also scored plenty, 50 goals in their own 20 matches, but they've lost seven times and never drawn once in that run. Their goals against column sits at 25, noticeably higher than their opponents', which points to a side that can be got at defensively even when they're scoring freely themselves.

New Saints look tighter at the back, which matters against a side that leaks goals.

A lopsided recent history

These two met in the league barely a month before this fixture, and The New Saints won 2-0 away from home. That's the most relevant data point here given how recent it is.

Zoom out further and the pattern holds. Recent meetings across cup and league competition have swung heavily toward The New Saints, including some very one-sided scorelines in both directions historically, though Airbus UK have managed the occasional win, such as a 1-0 League Cup success in 2024.

The weight of head-to-head history clearly favours the visitors, even allowing for the odd shock result.

How this Welsh Cup tie might play out

This is a cup match rather than a league fixture, so normal form lines don't always translate directly, especially with rotation or squad rotation possible in a competition like this. Still, the underlying numbers line up with recent head-to-head trends rather than against them.

Airbus UK's goal tally shows they're not toothless going forward, and at home they'll fancy their chances of testing a New Saints defence that's had to deal with a mix of domestic and continental opposition recently. The question is whether their leaky defensive record catches up with them again.
