WHAT HAPPENED?

The Wrexham boss said: "Tom has a slight fracture in his foot which will keep him out for a few weeks. Fletch felt his calf and failed a fitness test this lunchtime. He wasn’t quite right but it’s nothing serious. Andy Cannon took a blow to the head last week and the doctor didn’t feel it was right for him to play. Unfortunately, Fordey’s back spasmed yesterday and he wasn’t able to play."

WHAT PHIL PARKINSON SAID:

The injury situation will test Wrexham's squad depth for the Welsh derby. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/wrexham-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-league-two/blt70465efc7e7412a5#csec4f8cb3496fcf6e" target="_blank">Parkinson has already admitted there will be plenty of pride</a> at stake as his team aim to contine their promotion push. The two sides met just four weeks ago at the SToK Racecourse in a game the hosts won 2-0.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Wrexham face another key game next when they take on Blackburn Rovers in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Parkinson's side will have over a week to prepare for the match, and potentially welcome injured players back, as the two sides are due to meet at Ewood Park on Monday, January 29.
