Bristol City vs Wrexham Key Facts and Stats
  • Bristol City has only seen the both teams to score market land in 13 matches.
  • Wrexham remains unbeaten in their last 4 away games showing incredible resilience on the road.
  • The home side failed to find the back of the net in 3 recent fixtures.
  • Wrexham has successfully scored in each of their previous 5 matches played away from home.
  • Emil Ris Jakobsen leads the line for Bristol with 8 goals scored so far this season.
  • Phil Parkinson's side currently holds the second best defensive record when playing away from home.

Match Preview

Struber’s men need more from Emil Ris Jakobsen who averages 0.35 goals per 90 minutes. He will likely start alongside Scott Twine in a 3-4-2-1 system. Twine is another threat with 8 goals but the team as a whole has looked a bit toothless recently.

Defensively the Robins are missing Zak Vyner due to an ankle injury which is a big blow. Cameron Pring is expected to step up but he is quite aggressive having picked up 5 cards already. They must keep things tight to avoid another loss.

Still, the home form is decent enough to keep them in the top half. Ross McCrorie will be key in the wing back role. They are missing Luke McNally and Max Bird which limits Struber's options from the bench if they need late goals.

Wrexham arrives with huge confidence after going 4 games without a loss on their travels. Phil Parkinson will rely on Kieffer Moore who has 10 goals this season. Moore is a physical presence that Bristol's back three might struggle to contain tonight.

Josh Windass is another player to watch as he averages 0.49 goals per 90 minutes. He provides the creative spark alongside Sam Smith who has also been clinical. They are missing several players like Arthur James and Lewis Brunt but have depth.

Even so, the visitors look solid at the back with Callum Doyle. He averages 0.3 cards per 90 minutes and provides stability. If they maintain their defensive discipline, they could walk away with points. Check our latest Championship Predictions for more insights.

Wrexham AFC continues to defy expectations under manager Phil Parkinson, recently securing a historic spot in the FA Cup fifth round after defeating Ipswich Town. Following three successive promotions, the Red Dragons are now challenging for a Championship play-off position. Pundit Robbie Savage lauded Parkinson’s ability to consistently overcome critics, marking a perfect fifth-anniversary celebration for Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.

Wrexham is currently showing excellent form on the road where they remain unbeaten in 4 consecutive matches. They possess the 2nd best defensive record away from home with only 1.00 goals conceded per game. With Kieffer Moore leading the line with 10 goals, they have the clinical edge to punish a Bristol City side that has failed to score in 3 recent matches.

Bristol City occupies the 15th spot in the home standings with a modest 1.50 points per game. They are also missing key defensive figures like Zak Vyner and Luke McNally due to injuries. Given Wrexham has scored in 5 straight away fixtures, the double chance market offers great value. The visitors look well prepared to at least secure a draw at Ashton Gate.
