Airbus and The New Saints are familiar cup tie rivals
The two clubs met in the Welsh League Cup and Welsh Cup last season, with Craig Harrison's Saints coming out on top on both occasions. It's a tough ask for the Wingmakers once more and assistant boss Rick Chapman told the club's YouTube channel: 'Listen, TNS are the best team in Welsh football and have been for a number of years. 'But, from a coach's point of view, it's good to test yourselves against these coaches and, you know, they're doing really well.' George Peers will be looking to make his mark once more after he grabbed a hat-trick in last week's 3-0 league triumph over Buckley Town. It will be a tough encounter for Airbus, but they will once again put in the effort to try and cause a major upset against the cup holders. Chapman added: 'We'll do our best. We'll go away to TNS and do our best, and that's all we can do.' Saints' head coach Harrison is keen to make sure there's no European hangover from his side, who departed the UEFA Conference League in midweek. He told the club's X site: 'Obviously, everyone's going to be disappointed... but there can't be a hangover. Football is an ever-moving game and moving parts at all times and... we've got to defend our Nathaniel Cup. 'That's where it starts and then the week after, we've got to defend our Welsh Premier League and that's where we've got to make sure that we don't feel sorry for ourselves and have any pity. 'We get on with it, we dust ourselves down and make sure we perform on Saturday, and make sure we win the game on Saturday.'
