Wrexham vs Crewe Alexandra prediction, H2H - December 10, 2024
Crewe
On December 10, the Racecourse Ground will host a 1/16 final match of the English Football League Trophy, where Wrexham will face Crewe Alexandra. Here's a suggestion for betting on goals, cards, or the winner of this match.
Wrexham
The club, one of the oldest in existence, had languished in semi-professional tiers until catching the attention of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The Hollywood investors seem increasingly passionate about their project, which last season earned promotion from League Two. The team is now determined to make a quick leap through League One, aiming for even higher tiers. After their victory over Burton, Wrexham has reclaimed second place in the current table.
The Football League Trophy, however, doesn't appear to be a priority for the club. Despite this, they managed to defeat Salford and Wolves U21. Even after losing on penalties to Port Vale, the Welsh side retained first place in their group.
Crewe Alexandra
Crewe Alexandra played in the Championship at the turn of the century but has since alternated between League One and Two. Currently, they find themselves in the fourth tier, though last spring they narrowly missed promotion, finishing sixth and falling short in the playoffs. This season, they aim for direct promotion to League One but have dropped too many points recently, often settling for draws, including a 1-1 result against Bradford.
In the Football League Trophy, after beating Liverpool U21, they lost to Blackpool. Their fate was decided in a direct clash against Harrogate in the final group stage match, which they narrowly won 1-0.
Match Facts:
- Wrexham has won four of their last five matches.
- Crewe Alexandra has drawn three of their last four games.

Head-to-Head (H2H):

Prediction for Wrexham vs Crewe Alexandra:
