This is an important National League contest on Wednesday night. Wrexham could draw level with Dover at the top of the table with a victory in this one so they certainly have big enough incentive to go out and produce a strong away performance. Chester have completely different concerns as they are sequestered in the relegation zone but a victory will give them just a little bit of daylight. Wrexham are 23/10 at Ladbrokes to collect three points, with Chester at 21/10 with Ladbrokes.

Wrexham AFCChester Form
Chester find themselves in the drop zone then and in big danger. They hold a W3 D7 L8 record for the season and it’s those drawn matches which are really hurting them. Their home form reads W2 D3 L4 bt those two victories have at least come in their last four home matches, winning against Barrow in their last home fixture. This would be a huge three points against one of the stronger sides in the division if they could get it. They have only been ahead at half time in one of their nine home games this season and are averaging just over a goal per game there. Just 33% of their home games have gone over 2.5 goals.
Wrexham Form
The Welsh club are having a great season with a W8 D6 L4 record and they have lost just one game in their last thirteen games played. So they have produced a very strong run of form but the one loss in that sequence happened in their last away game out at AFC Fylde. Away from home, they have gone W4 D2 L3 and that loss at Fylde snapped a five-match undefeated streak away from home that they had produced. Wrexham have the joint-best defence in the league but they are the lowest scorers in the entire division despite sitting in third place. They have sixteen goals in 18 games. Chester have bettered them by two goals.
Head to Head News
There were two draws between Chester and Wrexham last season and the last six league games between the two clubs have been split evenly with two wins each and two draws. Chester are unbeaten in four home games against the Welsh club with a W2 D2 record from that sequence.
Top Betting Tips
This is Wrexham in action so it is probably going to be a low scoring game. Even though these two are battling away at opposite ends of the table, Chester may be able to claim a point in this one because Wrexham aren’t a profile attacking side and slipped up in their last away game. A Chester-Draw Double chance at 8/11 isn’t a bad option.
