Wrexham are back in Carabao Cup action on Tuesday evening, facing off with Reading.
Wrexham take on Reading in the third round of the competition this week, with the Dragons competing at this stage for the first time in the 21st century.
To get this far, the Welsh outfit were able to secure wins over Hull City and Preston North End.
Phil Parkinson has said there will be changes made for the upcoming fixture after the 3-2 win over Norwich City.
Club-record signing Nathan Broadhead will start after he was left on the bench on Saturday.
Elsewhere, ahead of the match, the Wrexham manager was full of praise for Reading.
Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson pleased for Reading
Wrexham and Reading faced off in League One last season, with the latter competing for a play-off spot but just missing out.
2024/25 was a very difficult season for the Royals but after several years of worry under Dai Yongge’s ownership, they were taken over in May.
Ex-Wycombe Wanderers owner Rob Couhig now has the controlling shares in the club, and Parkinson is happy for his former team.
He said: “I think Reading was a club in turmoil last year, and Nole and his staff, I thought, did a great job to keep it going. They really did.
“One thing Reading have had is a strong academy and they produce a lot of players. So through those times of turmoil, they’ve been able to give a lot of young players opportunities and, sometimes in financially difficult periods, it’s the young players who keep the club going.
“So, pleased the club’s been taken over and they’re looking to build back because Reading’s another club who’ve been in the Premiership a couple of times and consider themselves at the very least a top Championship side.”

Wrexham want fresh investment
Wrexham fans will be more than familiar with what poor ownership can do to a club.
Thankfully, since Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac came on board, those issues are a thing of the past.
Wrexham were valued at £350m earlier this year amid claims their North American owners are looking to sell another stake in the club.
The Allyn family are already partners at the Racecourse Ground, but as the Dragons continue their rise, Rob and Ryan seemingly feel more investment will be needed.
