Hence, winning the fixture is essential for both teams to avoid the playoffs. It would mean an automatic pass to the EFL League Two. Therefore, the game on April 10th is vital to both teams.
Considering their contrasting form, Wrexham won four out of five games, while Notts County won just two out of the last five. They slipped down after their recent form, and manager Luke Williams had some words for his side.
The manager commented: “The title race is not realistic any more for us. Even if we win there, we still can’t close the gap enough for it to be realistic. We are preparing to make sure we win the rest of our fixtures and see what happens after that. In football, something can change out of the blue but I am talking about, realistically, what I think.”
