Wrexham vs Birmingham

Wrexham welcome Birmingham City for a Friday night Championship fixture, with Phil Parkinson’s side still chasing a first win after back-to-back 1-1 draws. The hosts are set to be boosted by the return of attacker Josh Windass from a calf injury, while the Blues arrive off a goalless stalemate at Sheffield United.

Phil Parkinson confirmed that 32-year-old forward Josh Windass will be available after missing the opening two league games and the League Cup defeat at Middlesbrough. “Windass will definitely be fit for Friday and hopefully we’ll have a few more in as well,” Parkinson said. Wrexham remain without Libby Cacace and Ben Sheaf, both sidelined through injury, but the squad is otherwise unchanged from the side that drew with Watford. Birmingham manager Chris Davies has not reported any fresh injury concerns and is expected to name a similar lineup to the one that kept a clean sheet at Bramall Lane.

Wrexham opened the campaign with a 1-1 draw at Cardiff City, only to concede a stoppage-time equaliser, then followed it up with another 1-1 stalemate at home to Watford. Danny Imray scored his first goal for the club to cancel out Luca Kjerrumgaard’s early header for the Hornets. Parkinson was satisfied with the effort, saying, “I don’t think we could have asked much more in terms of the effort from the boys. They’ve given us a lot, and another day we could be sat here with six points.” The Reds have shown resilience but are still searching for the cutting edge to turn draws into wins.
