Team news & squads
Wrexham team news
Jacob Mendy, who had to depart early in the second half during the triumphant 3-1 visit to Grimsby Town, is under close observation due to a hamstring issue. Though the injury is not deemed severe, Mendy's participation against the league leaders remains uncertain.
On a positive note, James McClean is poised to rejoin the squad after serving a two-match suspension, potentially filling the gap should Mendy be sidelined. Callum McFadzean stands as an alternative, offering flexibility and depth to the side.
Wrexham predicted XI: Okonkwo, Bolton, Cleworth, O'Connell, Boyle, McClean, O'Connor, Cannon, Lee, Palmer, Mullin.
