First Prediction For Mansfield Town vs Wrexham – Sam Smith To Score – 85/40
Wrexham’s new man has come in and delivered immediately with a goal in his second start against Northampton Town. With talk around Paul Mullin’s omission from squads circling in recent days, the former Reading man needs to deliver on the pitch and this game is his best chance to do so. Mansfield’s defence have conceded nine times in their last three games and he joins an attack that needs a focal point with Ollie Rathbone being the only recent attacking standout whilst Elliot Lee is sidelined. The 26-year-old should be able to affirm why The Red Dragons spent heavily on him in January.
Second Prediction For Mansfield Town vs Wrexham – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 19/20
As mentioned previously, Mansfield have been shedding goals as of late, conceding nine in three matches. Wrexham are more than capable of putting teams to the sword, as they did against Northampton and Port Vale in the EFL Trophy. The Stags are at the bottom of the form table in League One with just one point in their last five, coming in a 3-3 draw with Blackpool and have scored just one goal outside of that clash. Wrexham have been defensively volatile with seven goals conceded in the same number of games, so there should be plenty of chances at both ends in this match.
Third Prediction For Mansfield Town vs Wrexham – Wrexham To Win – 6/5
Wrexham need to make a stand following midweek’s slipup against Leyton Orient and will no doubt be motivated by knowing what they need to do with their league rivals all playing on Saturday. The Welsh side have won their last three matches against Nigel Clough’s side, who seem to be in real trouble having lost eight of their last nine matches. Phil Parkinson’s side should take this contest easily but can’t afford complacency against a team that contains attacking brilliance like Will Evans.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head
Mansfield Town have had a torrid time as of late with eight losses in their last nine games. Their only point pickup came last week with a 3-3 draw against Blackpool in Lancashire, their first points since the 4th of January against Stockport County. Their last game was a 3-0 loss to Lincoln City, with The Imps completely shutting them out with no shots on target registered. They sit in 15th place heading into the weekend, nine points ahead of Burton Albion in the first of the four relegation spots in the league. Injuries have not been kind to The Stags either, with as many as five first-team players missing through injury and a further two questionable to play. The biggest blow was to Lee Gregory, with the striker expected to be out for the remainder of the season leaving Will Evans as the only player with three or more goals in League One this season.
Wrexham have faced a couple of slipups in recent weeks which means their gap to second-placed Wycombe Wanderers has extended to five points heading into the weekend, having played the same number of games. They could start the match in fifth should Stockport County gain at least a point against bottom side Cambridge United and if Huddersfield Town beat Peterborough United. In their past five matches, Wrexham have won twice, drawn once and lost twice. A loss was their most recent result, losing from a winning position to Leyton Orient. The main talking point coming into the game for The Red Dragons is the absence of Paul Mullin from recent matchday squads, missing recent games following the signings of both Sam Smith from Reading and Jay Rodriguez from Burnley in the final days of the winter transfer window.
Wrexham have the upper hand in the two sides’ recent fixtures, with the Welsh side winning five to Mansfield’s three, with two draws played out. Wrexham are on a four-game unbeaten run across all competitions, with the last three all being wins. The reverse fixture ended 1-0 at The Racecourse Ground, with Ryan Barnett scoring just shy of ten minutes into the game.
