Wrexham are potentially 90 minutes away from an EFL Trophy final meeting with Birmingham City.
The Red Dragons have seen off Port Vale and Bolton Wanderers already in the competition this month, booking a semi-final meeting with Peterborough United.
Birmingham City, meanwhile, have beaten Bradford City to guarantee their place at Wembley Stadium.
Wrexham go into the game having bounced back from a harrowing loss to Leyton Orient in midweek by securing a 2-1 victory over Mansfield Town.
But with two matches a week to be played going forward, changes are expected for the Peterborough game and we have now made three predictions for the match.
Paul Mullin starts and scores vs Peterborough United
Paul Mullin has been demoted out of the matchday squad by Parkinson in recent weeks.
Mullin returned for Wrexham against Mansfield, being named as one of three strikers on the bench.
However, he did not get onto the pitch, perhaps suggesting he was being saved for the EFL Trophy.
The likes of Modou Faal and Harry Ashfield have been given chances in this competition already and now he’s back fit, we could see Mullin in from the off against The Posh.
Should he start, given he already has two goals in this competition in 2024/25, there’s a good chance that when likely playing against a weakened Peterborough, Mullin can bag himself a couple of goals and recapture his top form.
Wrexham thump Peterborough to send Birmingham City a message
The League One title race unfortunately already looks to be over. Birmingham are six points clear of second and nine above Wrexham with two games in hand.
Tom Brady’s side have also already taken four points off the Red Dragons in the league this term.
But anything can happen in cup competitions and Wrexham hammering Peterborough to book their spot in the final would send a real message to the Blues, which their owners should love given their ‘rivalry’ with Brady.
Ryan Longman leaves Phil Parkinson with no choice
Since Ryan Longman joined from Hull City in January, he’s proven himself to be a quality addition.
He already has three assists to his name and was superb in recent wins over Port Vale and Bolton.
However, Longman was left on the bench in place of Jacob Mendy this past weekend while James McClean was out injured.
But it seems likely the ex-Tiger will start on Wednesday and no doubt put on another superb showing that will leave Parkinson with no choice but to start him in the league going forward.
