History of the Wrexham v Darlington fixture

Wrexham prepare to entertain Darlington at Racecourse Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Dragons are clearly on top, having won 28 and lost only 8 of the 47 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Racecourse Ground was just last season, in December 2006, the Dragons carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Wrexham's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Dragons have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Darlington's away form is none too clever either, picking up four victories from the last six. Those games have seen the The Quakers pummel 14 goals, and let in 5.

Wrexham find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 27 games have yielded only 20 points. Darlington are currently occupying 2nd spot in their division, gaining 53 points from their 27 games.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the Dragons at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the The Quakers come away with an easy victory. Away win
