Wrexham travel to MK Dons tonight and they could achieve something they have never done in their history.
The race for the automatic promotion places is heating up after Wrexham secured victories over Sutton United and Notts County.
Those two wins have given Phil Parkinson’s side a huge lift ahead of their clash against MK Dons tonight.
It was well needed as Mike Williamson’s side are in excellent form after winning nine of their last 13 matches to move to within four points of the final automatic promotion spot.
That is a position currently occupied by Wrexham, who will be desperate to pull seven points clear of the Dons, although it won’t be an easy task.
The hosts are ranked fourth in League Two for their home form with 33 points accumulated from their 16 matches played, losing just three times.
By contrast, Wrexham are 12th in the away form table and while they secured victory over strugglers Sutton, MK Dons are a different kettle of fish.
Wrexham have never won at MK Dons
Since Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds tookover the club, Wrexham have become used to regularly breaking records.
In the National League last term, they broke the record points total (111) and also achieved the highest viewing figures of any team in the division.
Those are just two of several milestones that the club have smashed in the past three years and the next could be winning at the Stadium MK.
Wrexham have only met MK Dons twice away from home, losing 2-0 in December 2004 and 2-1 to an 85th-minute winner from Clive Platt in March 2007.
With the first two meetings coming at the National Hockey Stadium, Wrexham have an opportunity to win at the Stadium MK for the very first time.
Shutting down Dan Kemp could be key
Ahead of their match against Notts County, the Athletic revealed that Wrexham’s pre-game session was centred around shutting down Jodi Jones, who has recorded 20 assists this season.
Parkinson’s side successfully shut down the division’s most creative force and must now do a similar job on Dan Kemp after he destroyed the Reds earlier on in the campaign.
During his time on loan at Swindon Town, Kemp set up a Charlie Austin goal and buried a left-footed striker beyond Ben Foster.
He has since been recalled by the Dons and will be looking to run riot against Wrexham once more.
After learning of his strengths in the 5-5 draw earlier on in the season, Parkinson will have a plan to nullify his threat and hopefully help the Reds record their first-ever victory at the Stadium MK.
