We will beat Wrexham next week

Need energy and pace and we will beat them.

Watched them beat Oxford last night and I was surprised how poor they were. Their wing backs are both pretty good mind so need to watch out for that. Excited for Kpakio being tested against their left sided player.

Have to remember that they do have a decent squad, certainly enough to beat us. The reality is they are a league above us.

They are 15th but with only six points from six home games. That doesn't surprise me, not because they have a weak squad, but because Parkinson has a track record of doing well in the lower leagues but not the Championship.

It'll be a tough game against a team who has more quality than we do. Wrexham will rightly be odds on favourites to win the game.

They’re starting to find their feet in the Championship now, after the step up to the bigger League initially found them wanting. However, a lot will depend on the teams put out on the night, and we have proven we have the players to perform against Championship sides who don’t pay us enough respect with their own selections

It will be an interesting clash, and I see both clubs putting out a decent XI, if for no other reasons that it’s two Welsh clubs, and the Gogs will want to ‘get one over’ on their capital city rivals! :ayatollah:

Wrexham have a trip up to Middlesborough Saturday us Tuesday then a big game home to top of the league Coventry on the Friday night so could see them resting a few key players against us

With home advantage Wrexham are favourites. Moore always scores against us but I think it will be a real cup tie and go there quietly confident.

Don't forget that the UK clocks go back this weekend so if you're still in AZ it will be a different time difference to Saturdays game.

The ceiling of some of our players is really high.

They have a fair few older players.
