Previous to that game, a home match hosting Solihull Moors in a game that was won 2-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Wrexham are not conceding a lot of goals here at Racecourse Ground in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 13 from 18 matches.
