Wrexham look to maintain unrivalled Racecourse record

Wrexham make their Racecourse return tonight – where their form puts even the Premier League’s best in the shade.

And that includes top-flight leaders Liverpool, with Anfield’s Kop not seeing as much success this term as the temporary Kop at the historic north Wales ground.

Phil Parkinson’s side welcome Barnsley in League One having rested up over the weekend due to their early FA Cup exit.

Second in the table, they will be looking to make it three wins in a row after recent triumphs over Exeter and Lincoln.

But Wrexham will also be looking to continue their impressive run in front of their own fans that sees the Hollywood-backed club boasting the best home record in the Premier League and the EFL.

They are one of only nine sides across the top four divisions to still be unbeaten at home, a collection that includes Arsenal, Brighton and League One rivals Birmingham.

And despite their impressive start to life under Arne Slot, even Liverpool trail Wrexham’s home form after losing to Nottingham Forest back in September.

From their nine home league games this season, the Red Dragons have delivered 25 points, with only the goalless draw with Huddersfield denying them a maximum return.

Across the top four divisions, only Sheffield United’s Championship record at Bramall Lane is on a par with the Blades also having collected eight wins and one draw from their nine games.

But Wrexham fans have seen more goals, with Parkinson’s side scoring 20 at home compared to the 14 from Chris Wilder’s men.

Brentford’s weekend win over Leicester sees them top the Premier League home table, with 19 points from seven games. It’s an eye-catching 2.71 points per game so far, slightly behind Wrexham’s 2.77 ppg.

Wrexham’s form at home is nothing new; although they lost three league games at the Racecourse on their return to the EFL last season, it is still just four league defeats on the Mold Road over the last four campaigns.
