Wrexham are gearing up for another big game on Tuesday night as Phil Parkinson welcomes Huddersfield Town to the STōK Cae Ras.
Wrexham secured a big win over one Yorkshire side over the weekend, beating Rotherham United 1-0 away from home.
Paul Mullin scored the only goal of the game, handing Wrexham a big victory on the road.
Tuesday night sees Wrexham return to the STōK Cae Ras for another Yorkshire clash, this time against Huddersfield Town.
The Terriers beat Bristol Rovers 3-1 on Saturday afternoon and sit sixth in the League One table, just five points behind Wrexham.
This will be another great test for Wrexham with Huddersfield ultimately expecting to be in the promotion shake-up this season.
Michael Duff on Wrexham
Huddersfield’s season has been boom or bust so far.
From 11 games, Huddersfield have won six and lost five, failing to draw even once.
Wins over Barnsley and Bristol Rovers have allowed Huddersfield to end a four-game losing run in League One.
Huddersfield boss Michael Duff will hope to keep the good feeling going at Wrexham on Tuesday night.
Speaking on Huddersfield’s official YouTube channel, Duff noted that Wrexham and next opponents Exeter City are both enjoying great starts.
Duff highlighted that Wrexham fans have an ‘obviously unbelievable’ connection to the current team, praising Wrexham supporters for pulling the team through difficult times.
“Whether they’re expected to be there or not, they’re in the top four,” said Duff.
“Everyone knows the Wrexham story. You talk about relationship with supporters, theirs is obviously unbelievable, their supporters get them through,” he added.
Wrexham fans help create a fortress
Duff is certainly aware of the impact Wrexham fans can have on Tuesday night.
Wrexham have played five games at home this season and won all five, beating Wycombe Wanderers, Reading, Shrewsbury Town, Crawley Town and Northampton Town.
This is just a continuation of last season’s brilliance at home with Wrexham winning 17 of 23 home games in League Two.
That record provided the backbone for Wrexham’s promotion-winning campaign and is clearly a major factor in this season’s superb start too.
Huddersfield will hope to take something away from the STōK Cae Ras but Duff is under no illusions about the task at hand.
