Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson may be feeling the pressure to correct one prominent Red Dragons issue as they face Sheffield Wednesday this weekend.

Wrexham welcome Sheffield Wednesday to the Racecourse Ground this weekend as both sides look to get their first points on the board of the 2025/26 Championship season.

It has been a challenging start to the campaign for Wrexham, and whilst they have shown promise against both Southampton and West Brom, Phil Parkinson’s side have still been somewhat lacking in certain departments.

One area of concern for the Red Dragons is in attack; Wrexham have accumulated the joint-most chances created in the Championship, but many opportunities in front of goal have been missed.

Fortunately, this weekend is set to provide Parkinson with an opportunity to correct these errors, but pressure will be on to do so.

Wrexham must show more of a clinical edge in Sheffield Wednesday clash

Wrexham will be expected to dispatch Sheffield Wednesday this weekend due to the concerns that the Owls have faced, which as a result have severely depleted their first-team options.

Sheffield Wednesday have been left with a void of experience in their side, with several youngsters filling in, most notably in between the sticks.

Owls goalkeeper Pierce Charles is injured for their trip to Wrexham, and it is expected that Phil Parkinson’s side will face off against a highly inexperienced goalkeeper at this level.

‘We’re still waiting’: International boss unsure on Wrexham star’s situation after recent injury scare

This should hopefully provide Wrexham with the opportunity to correct their woes in front of goal, and there will be added expectation that they can convert their chances against a struggling Championship side.

Phil Parkinson needs Nathan Broadhead to shine after Josh Windass’ injury

Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson has brought many forwards through the doors of the Racecourse Ground this summer, all of which have proven Championship experience.

However, after spending significant amounts of money on a handful of players, one who has notably shone is Josh Windass.

Unfortunately, the former Sheffield Wednesday player is injured and will not get the opportunity to play against his former side, meaning that the other Wrexham forwards will have to step up.

Wrexham signed Nathan Broadhead for £10m, and there is plenty of expectation that the Welshman can get on the scoresheet against Sheffield Wednesday, where he is likely to be handed his first start under Parkinson.

Wrexham take on Sheffield Wednesday this weekend, and the Owls have now received a favour from Cardiff City ahead of the game.

Wrexham are back in Championship action once again this weekend, taking on Sheffield Wednesday at the STōK Cae Ras.

Phil Parkinson saw Wrexham lose 3-2 to West Bromwich Albion last weekend, meaning he has suffered two narrow defeats to start the Championship season.

Home comforts have been a real factor throughout Parkinson’s reign as Wrexham boss, and he will be chasing a response this weekend.

Beleaguered Sheffield Wednesday head into town this weekend, with the Owls looking to get their first point on the board.

Cardiff City agree Sheffield Wednesday deal ahead of Wrexham clash

Wednesday’s summer has been dominated by financial woes, players walking away from the club over unpaid wages and protests against owner Dejphon Chansiri.

There is no end in sight in terms of Chansiri’s reign, and Wednesday have been dealt a major blow ahead of facing Wrexham.

First-choice stopper Pierce Charles has picked up an injury and will now miss the trip to North Wales.

Wednesday have explored an emergency signing to deputise for Charles, and they have received a favour from Cardiff City.

Wrexham’s Welsh rivals have agreed to send American goalkeeper Ethan Horvath to Wednesday on a temporary basis, as reported by The Sheffield Star’s Joe Crann.

Former Nottingham Forest goalkeeper Horvath played 17 times for Cardiff last season and may be familiar to some Wrexham fans in the United States.

Horvath has never played in Major League Soccer, but has picked up 10 caps for the United States Men’s National Team.

Horvath will now be thrown into the firing line against Wrexham as Wednesday look to spring a surprise on the road.

Wrexham fans understand Wednesday’s pain

Wrexham fans will stand in solidarity with Wednesday supporters this weekend.

Owls fans are running a ‘black and gold until it’s sold’ campaign, vowing to wear black and gold shirts until Chansiri leaves the club.

Wrexham fans are joining in, wearing last season’s gold third shirt from the League One promotion campaign to support Wednesday’s cause.

If any fanbase understands the pain of ownership nightmares, it’s Wrexham.

We would rather not even mention the name of Alex Hamilton, but that feeling from Wrexham supporters is very similar to how Wednesday fans now feel about Chansiri.

Phil Parkinson will be focused on three points this weekend, especially as Wednesday throw in an emergency goalkeeper, but Wrexham fans will also lend some support and appreciate the battle Owls supporters are now fighting.
