Match preview
WalesFAW Championship
Mold Alexandra host Rhyl in the FAW Championship on 31 October, and the goal data from both sides points to an open, high-scoring affair.
The strongest case for goals starts with Mold Alexandra's recent output. In their last five matches, every single game has produced more than two goals — a 5-for-5 record stretching back to 6 September. Over their last ten games across all venues, 8 of 10 have gone over 2.5, and at home over 20 matches the figure is 13 of 20. In that last-ten stretch, Mold Alexandra score 2.6 goals per game and concede 1.1.
Rhyl's numbers tell a similar story. Four of their last five matches have gone over 2.5, and over their last ten the record is 8 of 10. On the road, 13 of their 20 away games have produced three or more goals. In their last ten, Rhyl score 1.9 per game and concede 2.1.
The head-to-head is thin — just two meetings on record — and it does raise a question. The most recent meeting at Mold Alexandra's ground on 21 February ended 0-1 to Rhyl, and the one before that at Rhyl's ground on 10 October 2025 was a 0-3 Mold Alexandra win. Both were one-sided, with one team failing to score. That is the main counter-argument: this fixture has gone quiet in both of its meetings.
But that head-to-head is dated. The February meeting was 8 months ago, and the October 2025 game is a full 12 months out. In that time, Mold Alexandra's form has shifted dramatically — 7 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in their last ten, with 4 clean sheets and 0 games without a goal. Rhyl, meanwhile, have won just 2 of their last 10, drawing 4 and losing 4, and have not kept a clean sheet in any of those 10.
The matchup table reinforces the scoring picture. Mold Alexandra at home average 1.35 goals per game and concede 1.3; Rhyl away average 1.15 scored and 2.0 conceded. Both venue records show 13 of 20 games going over 2.5.
Key Points:
Verdict: Over 2.5 goals.
