Second from bottom takes on second from top in League One this weekend as Burton Albion face Wrexham in a key clash for both teams. Will our match prediction favour the home team Brewers in this game, or can the Red Dragons continue to breathe fire into their chase for the League One title?
The Brewers picked up their first away win in midweek, a 1-0 win at Peterborough under caretaker manager Tom Hounsell. It was enough to move Burton off the bottom of the table and was their second win in the past four games.
The first was a 2-0 win over Shrewsbury, but since then they lost 3-0 to Stockport and 1-0 to Charlton, both at home, before the surprise 1-0 win over Peterborough on Wednesday night.
Wrexham’s lofty second place in the table has been achieved on the back of exemplary home form, where they have won nine and drawn one of ten matches in front of their home fans. Away from home, it has been a different story.
Phil Parkinson’s team have won just two of eight, drawing three, losing three. But they have won four of their last five games, all without conceding a goal beating Exeter 3-0, Lincoln 1-0 and Barnsley 1-0 in midweek.

Our Burton Albion vs Wrexham Prediction
Our prediction for the Burton Albion vs. Wrexham League One match is: Wrexham to win.
Burton's two wins in their last four games does give their recent form a much better feel than their form over the course of the entire season. They are likely to be found out by a Wrexham side who have looked superb defensively of late and who do need to improve their away from if they are to clinch one of the automatic promotion spots. As such, back the Red Dragons to scorch the Brewers on Saturday.
