Shrewsbury Town vs Wrexham Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in FA Cup Predictions
We're guaranteed a club from outside of the top two divisions in the FA Cup fourth round. Shrewsbury (13th in League One) host Wrexham who are in the division below them. The home side won their most recent game 3-1 at home to Fleetwood Town who are currently bottom of League One. That was a much-needed win for the Shews who had lost their previous four games with eight goals conceded. They are only 13th in League One but just seven points above the relegation zone and 13 adrift of the final promotion play-off position. To reach this FA Cup third round for the seventh season in a row, Shrewsbury have had wins at home to Colchester United and at Notts County, both by a 3-2 scoreline. Shrewsbury have lost two of their last three home games with six goals being conceded.
While still a non-league side, Wrexham caused a big upset in the FA Cup last season when beating Championship side Coventry City and only losing to Sheffield United after a replay. They are now back in the EFL and flying high in third place, two points behind the leaders with a game in hand. Their most recent fixture produced a 4-1 home win over Barrow, their 14th league win of the season. Wrexham have only lost one of their five games They have beaten fellow League Two side Mansfield (second in the table) and National League South leaders Yeovil Town to reach this stage. We go for them to get a win here and reach the fourth round for the second successive season.
