CWMBRAN Town have the players to beat League Of Wales table-toppers Total Network Solutions tomorrow (2:30pm), according to Crows coach Roger Gibbins.
The North Walians are unbeaten in nine matches, unbeaten at their Recreation Ground home and have only lost twice all season.
Sixth-placed Cwmbran have lost three of their last five but have had good wins at Bangor and Carmarthen.
And Town - who are ten points behind their hosts with three games in hand - have not beaten TNS on the last three occasions.
And Gibbins is confident that the Gwent side can gate-crash the TNS party and bag themselves a vital three points against the division's in-form side.
"We have the players capable of going up there and getting a win," said Gibbins. "We have got to bounce back from our defeat at Barry and get back on a winning run. It will be a tough game, TNS are a good footballing side but we have got the players to get the three points we need.
"Our problem is we are giving silly goals away as we've been defending badly. "I wouldn't say this is a must win game because we haven't even entered the new year yet but it would be a major boost if we could."
This is Cwmbran's fourth long trip in as many weeks. They have travelled to Bangor, Rhyl and Rhayader in the past four weeks, now this trip to Llansantffraid, between Welshpool and Oswestry, means they are clocking up the mileage on their team bus.
Cwmbran Town (from): P O'Hagan, G Wager, R Carter, P James, S Wharton (c), N Smothers, N Wigg, S Mainwairing, M Pattimore, A Wright, C Watkins, R Griffiths, C Hughes, J Welsh, R Shugar, M Hennessey, N Cotterrell, A Moore.
