Wrexham face a trip to Rochdale at Spotland at lunchtime on Tuesday, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Dragons will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2006, with Wrexham inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Dale in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides
Rochdale's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Dale have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Wrexham's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Dragons have hit 4 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Rochdale are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 20 points from 23 matches. Wrexham find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 27 points from their 22 matches.
