Wrexham are back in League One action on Saturday afternoon against Bristol Rovers.
Phil Parkinson will be keen to see his side bounce back when they take on Bristol Rovers on December 21st.
The Red Dragons faced off with Cambridge United in their last League One outing and dropped two huge points.
The Welsh outfit fought from 1-0 down to get themselves 2-1 in front with just minutes of normal time remaining.
But a challenge from Lewis Brunt in his own box handed the away outfit a penalty, which they scored to see Cambridge draw 2-2 with Wrexham.
Parkinson’s side are now up against a Bristol Rovers side eyeing an interim manager bounce following the dismissal of Matt Taylor.
Former Middlesbrough midfielder Lee Cattermole has taken temporary charge of the club, who sit 20th in the division prior to facing Wrexham.

Phil Parkinson provides George Evans injury update
Prior to that meeting, the Red Dragons are set to play out a reserve fixture on the night of Tuesday, December 17th.
Ahead of that tie, as per Leader Live, Parkinson has provided an update on midfielder George Evans.
Evans was injured for Wrexham vs Stevenage and has been sidelined since after he ‘felt something crack’.
However, Parkinson has now confirmed that the 30-year-old is expected to feature for the Red Dragons in their reserve clash on Tuesday.
He said: “We’ve got a reserve game on Tuesday which hopefully George Evans will play so that gives us another body going into the Christmas period.”

Does George Evans have a future at Wrexham
The midfielder played 35 times for the Red Dragons in 2023/24, providing two assists.
Parkinson was told Evans is ‘irreplaceable’ at Wrexham toward the back end of the previous campaign when he played a key role in their promotion from League Two.
However, even before his injury, the Cheadle-born star had seen his minutes greatly reduced in the current season.
He had only started one game, in which he was injured, falling behind George Dobson, Andy Cannon, and Elliot Lee in the midfield pecking order.
Evans remains under contract until 2026 but with Wrexham wanting to offer Matty James a new deal after he has shone following his recent addition as a replacement for the injured star, there is now even more competition for places in the middle of the park.
