Wrexham faces an injury crisis ahead of their League Two fixture

Wrexham’s defensive line faces a daunting challenge as Jordan Tunnicliffe, a key defender, has succumbed to a calf injury during the international break. This setback compounds the team’s defensive worries, adding to their struggle to keep opponents at bay. Tunnicliffe’s absence further intensifies Wrexham’s ongoing issues in preventing goals.

The injury crisis deepens with midfielder Tom O’Connor sidelined due to an injury sustained over the weekend. Although center-back Eoghan O’Connell is back on the field, he remains unavailable for matches. He’s still working towards regaining match fitness after a prolonged absence. Wing-back Ryan Barnett, recovering from an injury sustained against Notts County, is still weeks away from making a return.
