THE New Saints head into their first competitive fixture since the departure of their former manager as they take on Haverfordwest County on Saturday.

Saints parted company with former boss Scott Ruscoe, and former assistant manager Steve Evans, last week following a 0-0 draw with Bala Town.

For tonight’s fixture, interim boss Chris Seargeant will look to guide his side back to the top of the JD Cymru Premier, after Connah’s Quay Nomads failed to pick up three points away at Penybont on Saturday afternoon.

TNS took three points from their last meeting with Haverfordwest after Blaine Hudson netted a 91st minute goal to give his side a 3-2 victory.

Haverfordwest are currently seventh in the JD Cymru Premier table, and know a win over TNS would see them move to sixth.
