Wrexham vs Harrogate Town Match Analysis & Prediction
12/03/2024 10:45 pm
Wrexham will be looking to record three straight wins and boost their promotion chances when they host Harrogate Town in League Two on Tuesday night.
Since the beginning of March, Wrexham have handed themselves a massive boost in the League Two promotion race with back-to-back victories over Accrington Stanley and Morecambe, with the latter coming on Saturday at the Mazuma Mobile Stadium.
Six points since the turn of the month has allowed Phil Parkinson’s side to stay third in the League Two standings, two points ahead of fourth-placed MK Dons, who have played a game more.
With the Red Dragons collecting 41 points from just 17 league matches on home turf this season, Wrexham boast the best home record in the division, and it is their away form which is holding them back from running away with the league, having won just six of 19 on the road.
Harrogate’s ambitions of reaching the top seven this season have all but been halted following a six-game winless run, which was extended by a defeat at home to fellow mid-table dwellers Crawley at the weekend, meaning the visitors have collected just two points in their last six games.
After successive 19th-placed finishes over the past two years, even optimistic Harrogate fans would not have expected a serious charge for promotion this season, but they could still secure a top-half finish, with Simon Weaver’s side one point behind Bradford City in 12th.
If the division was purely determined on away form, Harrogate would be challenging the likes of Wrexham at the top end of the table, with the team collecting 29 points from 18 away matches in League Two this season – a tally only league leaders Manfield Town (33) can better.

Having limited Morecambe to few openings in the dominant second-half performance, Wrexham should continue with a back three of William Boyle, Eoghan O’Connell and Max Cleworth on Tuesday.
Former Sunderland marksman Steven Fletcher could earn a starting berth after scoring off the bench last time out, while Jack Marriott will also be pushing for a spot in the XI.
