Wrexham's aspirations for automatic promotion in EFL League One have faced recent challenges. After a convincing 3-0 victory over Exeter City that propelled them to second place, the team suffered a setback with a 2-1 defeat against Barnsley. This loss was a significant blow to their promotion hopes, as it dropped them back to third place in the standings.

Earlier in the week, Wrexham had secured a narrow 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic, thanks to a dramatic last-minute goal from Steven Fletcher. The team also managed to clinch a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Barnsley, with Oliver Rathbone scoring the decisive goal late in the match. However, their promotion push was further complicated when they were denied victory by a late equalizer from Bristol Rovers, marking the second consecutive week they dropped points in the dying moments of a match.

Wrexham's recent performance has seen them level on points with Wycombe Wanderers after a narrow win against Burton Albion, where Elliot Lee scored directly from a corner kick. Additionally, forward Paul Mullin made headlines by scoring just 16 seconds into a match against Rotherham, contributing to a hard-fought 1-0 victory.

As it stands, Wycombe Wanderers and Birmingham City are tied at the top of the table with 50 points each, while Wrexham sits in third with 48 points from 24 games. The current standings reflect Wycombe's strong form, with 15 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses, closely followed by Birmingham City. Wrexham's record includes 14 wins, 6 draws, and 4 losses.

Wrexham's average attendance since their promotion to the third tier has been impressive, with 12,869 fans attending matches, a figure that could be higher if their stadium capacity allowed. In contrast, Wycombe's average home attendance stands at 5,184, which is among the lower figures in the league.
