West Brom vs Wrexham: Key Matchup in Championship

By Vikram Nair / 03.04.2026

West Bromwich Albion will face Wrexham at The Hawthorns on April 3, 2026, in a crucial Championship encounter. This match marks the first league meeting between the two teams at this venue, with West Brom currently four points clear of the relegation zone.

West Brom has recently improved their standing, moving up to 20th in the table after stringing together two consecutive league victories. Their last match ended in a 1-0 win against Bristol City, showcasing their determination to avoid relegation.

On the other hand, Wrexham is looking to secure a spot in the playoff positions, needing at least a point from this match to move back into contention. They are currently just outside the playoff places, trailing sixth-placed Southampton on goal difference.

In their previous encounter on August 16, 2025, West Brom edged out Wrexham with a narrow 3-2 victory. However, Wrexham has shown resilience, winning five of their last seven league matches on the road, which could play a crucial role in this matchup.

Both teams are dealing with injury concerns. Wrexham’s top scorer, Kieffer Moore, is sidelined with a hamstring injury, which could impact their attacking options. Meanwhile, West Brom will be without Mikey Johnston, who is out for the season due to a leg injury.

Historically, Wrexham has not defeated West Brom in 96 years, adding pressure on them to break this long-standing drought. As the match approaches, observers are keen to see if West Brom can achieve their first three consecutive wins of the season, or if Wrexham can capitalize on their recent form to secure a vital point or more.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding any last-minute changes to the lineups or tactical adjustments from either side as they prepare for this pivotal clash.
