Hartlepool will take on Wrexham this weekend. Pools will go into the game as firm favourites. Wrexham are 3rd bottom and have not win since before Christmas

Hartlepool will travel to Wrexham as firm favourites when the sides meet on Saturday. Hartlepool are on a great run of 11 games unbeaten, 10 of which were victories and in 9 of them Pools have kept clean sheets. Wrexham on the other hand are having a terrible time. They are 3rd bottom of the league with 28 points and havent won since the 23rd of December when the beat Darlington 1-0

Wrexham are still adjusting to life under a new manager. Dennis Smith was releaved of his managment duties last week and coach Brian Carey has taken charge until the end of the season. 

Hartlepool will come up against Chris Llewelyn who joined Wrexham thinking he would have a better chance of promotion. Well he is not the first person to get a prediction wrong.

Hartlepool will once again have to swap their defense about. This time Nelson will miss the game through suspension after getting his 5th yellow of the season against the Dons and Clarke will probably play alongside Liddle at centre back. Hartlepool will also be without Willie Boland who is out with a hamstring injury.

Wrexham will be without skipper Neil Roberts, despite him returning to training this week.
