At least they managed to earn a draw against Derby County in the latest round.
The Welsh side were promoted from League One in 2025 and battled for a place in the playoff zone. In the end, they fell a couple of points short and finished seventh. This season's start has been far less convincing, although half of their matches have ended in draws. In the League Cup, they were eliminated immediately, losing 0-1 to Middlesbrough back in August. They also suffered a 0-2 defeat against Blackburn.
Bamford and his teammates are averaging 1.33 goals scored per game and conceding 1.25. Wrexham are currently scoring 1.25 goals per match while allowing significantly more — 1.5 on average.
