Wrexham travel to take on Stockport County at Edgeley Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Dragons will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 30 and win only 9 of the 51 games.

The last time the two teams met at Stockport County was just over four years ago, in September 2007, the Hatters carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League Two match.
