Wrexham v Swansea City: play-off push meets top-half charge | OneFootball

Wrexham host Swansea City in the Championship on Friday, 13 March 2026 in Wrexham, with the hosts defending a play-off spot and the visitors chasing a top-half climb.

Wrexham are sixth on 57 points and Swansea City sit 11th with 52. The visitors edged the reverse fixture 2-1 in December.

Phil Parkinson's side strung together three straight league wins in late February before losing to Hull City on Tuesday. Swansea arrive on a bounce after beating Stoke City and then Portsmouth, making it three wins in their last five league games.

The hosts are without Matty James and Ben Sheaf through injury, while George Dobson is suspended and Liberato Cacace is also sidelined. Swansea are missing forwards Adam Idah and Zeidane Inoussa through injury.

Wrexham have scored 55 league goals with a notably direct edge: 530 open-play crosses at 20.00% accuracy, 14 headed goals and strong aerial numbers. That supply could suit Kieffer Moore, who has 11 league goals, with Josh Windass on nine (per the latest league rankings). Swansea may look to control long spells, averaging 55% possession and 80.25% passing accuracy, with leader Zan Vipotnik top of the Championship scorers on 17 and Josh Tymon providing nine assists.

A home win would lift Wrexham to 60 points and could tighten their grip on the play-offs. Three points would take Swansea to 55 and could move them into the top 10, nudging them closer to the play-off conversation.
