Wrexham travel to Wigan Athletic in a crucial encounter in League One at both ends of the table.

Wrexham are looking to secure the first of five wins that will see them promoted automatically from League One and into the history books as the first team to win three successive promotions.

Wigan’s threat has been highlighted to Wrexham with their defensive record solid under Ryan Lowe and the Latics want a win or two from now until the end of the campaign to secure their status in the division.

Phil Parkinson is sweating on the fitness of some key players as Jay Rodriguez and George Dobson try to shake off knocks picked up in the win over Burton Albion at the Racecourse Ground.

Referee decisions had a bearing on the outcome of the Red Dragons victory last time out and owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney will not want to hear of the appointment for the Wigan clash.

Who is the referee for Wigan Athletic v Wrexham?

The referee for Wrexham’s clash with Wigan Athletic at the Brick Community Stadium is Adam Herczeg.

He will be joined by assistants Oliver Bickle and Jacob Graham, whilst Zac Kennard-Kettle will be on Fourth Official duties.

Herczeg has been busy this season having taken charge of 33 games across the Championship, League One and League Two. He has also taken charge of games in this season’s FA Cup.

Wrexham record with Herczeg in charge

Wrexham will not be welcoming the appointment of Herczeg having never won in the previous five games that he has taken charge of the club.

His most recent game involving the Red Dragons was a 0-0 draw at home to Huddersfield in October this season whilst the first game in charge was in a 3-1 defeat to Grimsby Town in September 2021.

Herczeg was also in charge of Wrexham’s heart breaking play off semi final defeat at the hands of the Mariners as they lost 5-4 in extra time, much to the disappointment of the Wrexham owners and fans.
