After a great FA Cup campaign, Wrexham’s focus is on winning the league. The winners of the Vanarama National League get a direct promotion to League Two. It will be the primary aim of the club. They are currently second, with five points behind the leaders.

However, they have two more games in hand and can potentially go top of the table by winning them. It is going to be a nail-biting finish to the title race. Wrexham is on the back of the great FA Cup campaign, where they beat the second-division side in the third round. They held another second-division side in the fourth round but lost in the replay.
