The Nava Durga, if you properly notice are forms of Parvati.

The nine manifested forms of Goddess Durga (Gauri) or (Parvati) are:

Shailaputri,

Brahmacharini,

Chandraghanta,

Kushmanda,

Skandamata,

Katyayini,

Kaalratri,

Mahagauri and

Siddhidhatri.

The Dus Mahavidyas are mentioned as forms of Sati (Parvati's previous incarnation).

These are the ten:

The Mahavidyas are considered Tantric in nature, and are usually identified as:

🔴Kali – The ultimate form of Brahman, "Devourer of Time" (Supreme Deity of Kalikula systems).

🔴Tara – The Goddess as Guide and Protector, or Who Saves. Who offers the ultimate knowledge which gives salvation. She is the goddess of all sources of energy. The energy of the sun is also a grant from her.

🔴Tripura Sundari (Shodashi) – The Goddess Who is "Beautiful in the Three Worlds" (Supreme Devi of Srikula systems); the "Tantric Parvati" or the "Moksha Mukta".

🔴Bhuvaneshvari – The Goddess as World Mother, or Whose Body is the Cosmos.

🔴Bhairavi – The Fierce Goddess.

🔴Chhinnamasta – The self-decapitated Goddess

🔴Dhumavati – The Widow Goddess, or the Goddess of death.

🔴Bagalamukhi – The Goddess Who Paralyzes Enemies.

🔴Matangi – the Prime Minister of Lalita (in Srikula systems); the "Tantric Saraswati".

🔴Kamala – The Lotus Goddess; the "Tantric Lakshmi".

As you see while the Nava Durga are more benign in nature the Dash Mahavidyas are more fierce and war-like. However, both of them are forms of Goddess Shakti and both the lists include Ma Kali so that is the connection between them.

Or in simple terms

The Nava Durga are forms of Parvati and Dus Mahavidyas are form of Sati both of whom are forms of Goddess Shakti/so that can be a connection between them.
