Airbus v Holywell looks to be tie of the round in WBS League Cup northern quarter-finals

Airbus UK Broughton are double trophy holders in the Welsh Blood Service League Cup

Double holders Airbus UK Broughton have landed a cracking tie at home to JD Cymru North leaders Holywell Town in the northern quarter-finals of the Welsh Blood Service League Cup.

The Wingmakers won both the northern and national versions of the trophy last season, but will need to be at their best to get past the in-form Wellmen.

Elsewhere, CPD Y Rhyl 1879 have been drawn at home to Guilsfield and there is an all-Powys clash in store when Newtown entertain Caersws.

Ruthin Town, who edged past Gresford Athletic on penalties in the first round will have home advantage against Buckley Town in the last eight.

Round Two northern section draw (Ties will be played across the weekend of 16-18 January 2026)
