Cardiff City got the worst draw possible in the FAW Premier Cup semi-finals, with a tough visit to the Racecourse to face holders Wrexham awaiting the Bluebirds in the last four of the competition. 

The Robins take this competition very seriously, and tend to field their strongest side in all rounds. They reached the semis by stumbling past Welsh Premiership leaders Total Network Solutions, despite the hosts dominating possession for long periods of the match.  

Wrexham won the competition last season for the fourth time in six seasons with a 6-1 demolition of Newport County, to add icing on the cake of their promotion season. The £100,000 prize money helped them prepare for the step up In Division Two, which they have managed in style, and have ambitions of gaining promotion once again this campaign. 

The full draw is as follows:
Rhyl v.
Swansea City
Wrexham v.
Cardiff City
