Wrexham vs Sutton United Prediction: Sutton are sitting at the bottom of the League 2 pile

Wrexham will welcome Sutton United at Racecourse Ground, Wrexham in Game Week 13 of the English League 2. Sutton are sitting at the bottom of the League 2 pile and the hosts will be looking for some crucial points in their aim for promotion. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Wrexham form

Wrexham's return to the EFL has not been without challenges, as they recently secured a 1-1 draw against Bradford City, dropping valuable points. This draw adds to their recent inconsistent form, with only two wins in their last six matches, which is unexpected given the takeover by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. This inconsistent form has hindered their ability to keep up with league leaders Stockport, who have won eight consecutive games. Despite only winning six games this season, Wrexham still has a strong chance of promotion due to the highly competitive nature of League Two, where all teams are capable of taking points off each other. If Wrexham can secure a win for themselves while Crewe Alexandra or Notts County drop points, they will move into the automatic promotion places. Moving above Notts County would be particularly advantageous, as this upcoming match against Sutton will also serve as preparation for a crucial encounter against last season's title rivals on Saturday. 

Wrexham Predicted Lineup

Wrexham's likely starting lineup includes Okonkwo, Hayden, Tozer, O'Connor, Mendy, Jones, Evans, Lee, McClean, Mullin, and Fletcher

Sutton United form

On the other hand, Sutton, who currently occupy the bottom spot in the Football League, have experienced a significant decline since their impressive 5-1 victory over Notts County on the opening day of the season. They have lost 11 of their 13 games since then and failed to capitalize on a 4-0 win against Walsall earlier this month. Consecutive defeats against Doncaster Rovers and Morecambe, conceding a total of seven goals, further highlight their struggles. Despite their recent comeback from a 2-0 deficit against Morecambe, Sutton experienced another heartbreaking defeat, conceding a goal in injury time to lose 3-2. Although they are only three points away from safety, Sutton has played more games than Colchester United and Forest Green Rovers, the two teams directly above them in the League Two standings. The odds of Sutton turning their fortunes around in this game are slim, considering they have lost all six of their away games and are now facing a team that has scored 23 goals in their seven home games this season.

Sutton United Predicted Lineup

Sutton United's possible starting lineup consists of Bouzanis, Kizzi, Goodliffe, Sowunmi, Hart, Pereira, Eastmond, Clay, N'Guessam, Beautyman, and Smith
