History of the Stockport County v Wrexham fixture

Wrexham face a trip to Stockport County at Edgeley Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Dragons will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 28 and win only 9 of the 49 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2006, the Hatters carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Stockport County's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Hatters have conceded a disappointing 8 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.

Wrexham's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The Dragons's have scored 8 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 10.

Stockport Co. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League Two with a return of just 5 points from their 8 games thus far. Wrexham lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola League Two, picking up 12 from their 7 games so far.
