Should they pick up the three points at the Racecourse Ground and results elsewhere go their way, the Red Dragons could end Saturday sat second in the table.

Should the Red Dragons indeed go up, they will have won three promotions on the spin – a simply insane record.

But even if a place in the 2025/26 Championship does elude them, this campaign has still been a major success for Wrexham, despite fan frustration showning at times.
