Crewe Alexandra won’t want a repeat of their last result here after the 0-3 League Two defeat in their last game at the hands of Grimsby Town.

Toby Mullarkey (38'), Curtis Thompson (59') and Denver Hume (90') scored for Grimsby Town.

A recurring theme in recent Crewe Alexandra games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.

• haven't been beaten in the league by Wrexham in their previous 5 matches.

💭 Prediction

Our feeling is that Crewe Alexandra might have a difficult job to find the net against this Wrexham outfit who we reckon should get a goal themselves and run out victorious.

Our tip is therefore for a very even contest with a 0-1 advantage for Wrexham at the end of this one.

Hoping for a good game.
