Embarking on an extended flurry, Chris Davies' men have their sights firmly set on mounting a genuine play-off charge in 2026 and the open Tuesday's showdown sat just two points adrift of skyrocketing into the top-six. Last seen over the weekend clinching a 2-1 victory at home against Leicester, the mood around St. Andrew's is at a red-hot high and they will certainly be smelling another golden opportunity here.

Starting with the hosts, while West Brom might have extended on their FA Cup adventure last weekend as they secured a nail-biting penalty shootout victory, the Baggies find themselves at the heart of a public Championship nightmare. Scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the table and with some around the Hawthorns potentially looking over their shoulder at a looming relegation scrap, new boss Eric Ramsay has a major jobs on his hands in the Midlands.

However, making an immediate return to losing ways last time out as they opened the New Year with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Sheffield United, the pressure on Marti Cifuentes' shoulders has now reached a boiling points. Coming under a huge amount of scrutiny on December 20th as they slumped to a 4-1 drumming against QPR, the Foxes have lost three of their previous four Championship appearances.

Wrexham will host West Brom for their first Championship home game on Saturday, offering free live streaming in the UK via ITV.
