Birmingham v Wrexham: play-off push meets mid-table aims | OneFootball

Birmingham City host Wrexham in the Championship on Sunday, 12 April 2026 at St Andrew's, with the visitors eyeing the play-off places and the hosts looking to steady themselves after a lean run.

Birmingham City and Wrexham have drawn two of their last three meetings, with the hosts winning the other. The recent results keep this match-up tight, even with the sides sitting at different ends of the top half and mid-table.

Birmingham have one win from their last five league games, while Wrexham have taken two wins, a draw and two defeats in that spell, including a 5-1 home loss to Southampton. Momentum is mixed on both sides.

Injuries shape selection. For the hosts, Kai Wagner, Lee Buchanan, Alexander William Cochrane and Kyogo Furuhashi are listed as injured. For the visitors, Matty James, Ben Sheaf and Liberato Cacace are sidelined.

Wrexham have scored 63 league goals and could lean on delivery and aerial power, with 19.50% cross accuracy and 16 headed goals, plus Josh Windass on 12 and Kieffer Moore on 11. Birmingham average 54% possession with 79.50% passing accuracy, and may try to control the game through Marvin Ducksch's 10 goals and Jay Stansfield's six assists, though they have managed only one goal from set pieces.

A home win would move Birmingham to 56 points and could lift them towards the top half. Victory for Wrexham would take them to 67 points and could nudge them into the play-off places.
