Wrexham travel to Peterborough on Saturday afternoon looking to continue their unbeaten run in League One.
All the talk leading up to the game has, of course, been about the transfer window and the business Wrexham have completed.
As it stands, Wrexham have made one new signing on deadline day, adding striker Modou Faal to their squad from West Brom, with the 21-year-old signing a three-year contract at the Racecourse Ground.
Faal was delighted to join Wrexham and Phil Parkinson shared his excitement for the Gambian centre-forward, who scored 13 goals in League Two last season.
Now, supporters will be wondering whether the powerful striker will play some part, or perhaps start their trip to Peterborough on Saturday afternoon.

There are no fresh concerns following last weekend’s 3-0 victory over Reading, although Parkinson did welcome back talisman Paul Mullin.
The 29-year-old played the final 16 minutes of that match, replacing Jack Marriott, but Parkinson says he won’t rush Mullin back into the starting XI straight away.
The only injury worries Wrexham have is of midfield duo, Ollie Rathbone and George Evans, two players who missed last weekend’s win over the Royals.
Whilst Parkinson confirmed that Rathbone would return from his foot injury this week, it isn’t such good news for Evans, with the defensive midfielder set to be out for two weeks with a groin problem.
So, with that said, here’s how Wrexham could line up against the Posh.

Arthur Okonkwo will undoubtedly keep his place between the sticks as the 22-year-old has been one of Wrexham’s most crucial players. Okonkwo was Man of the Match in the goalless draw at Bolton and similar heroics will be needed here.
Parkinson currently has a settled back three of Max Cleworth, Eoghan O’Connell and Tom O’Connor, with that trio unlikely to change against Peterborough.
One of the manager’s biggest dilemmas, though, is in the wing-back roles. Sebastian Revan has been near faultless since arriving from Aston Villa but the 21-year-old was dropped for Ryan Barnett against Reading, who assisted Ollie Palmer from the right.
Barnett, therefore, should keep his spot in the starting XI, along with captain James McClean on the other side, who will need to be at his best to keep Kwame Poku quiet.
As for the midfield three, that generally speaks for itself. George Dobson will start at the base having made the most tackles of any player in the EFL last weekend, alongside Andy Cannon and Elliot Lee.
Up front, the Wrexham boss will be tempted to throw Mullin back in and new signing Faal but Parkinson has spoken highly of Jack Marriott, who should continue partnering Ollie Palmer.
