Wrexham form

Wrexham have made a return to the EFL after being away for 15 years. They have had a mixed start to the season with six points from their first five league matches. Following an exciting 5-5 draw with Swindon Town, Phil Parkinson's team could only manage a draw in their away game against Barrow. Elliot Lee scored a penalty in the 12th minute to give Wrexham a slight lead at halftime, but Barrow equalized in the second half, resulting in Wrexham's third draw in four league games. While the draws may be frustrating for Parkinson, the team is currently unbeaten in five competitive matches and is eager to continue this streak when they face Bradford for the first time since 2008. After defeating Wigan in the previous round, Wrexham hopes to make it to the third round of the EFL Cup for the first time since the 1981-1982 season.
