Players to watch out for:

Max Cleworth (Wrexham)

The Welsh is arguably the most consistent player in the ongoing season. Centre-back is a position that requires a lot of experience and maturity. However, despite only being 22, Max is one of the best defenders in the domestic league he plays in. He is also a threat from set pieces as he has scored five goals already.

Jay Stansfield (Birmingham City)

Jay Stansfield has scored 12 goals in 18 EFL League One appearances. His positioning is one of his biggest assets, allowing him to find space in the opposition box. He has registered his name on the scoresheet three times in the last six matches and is coming into this game in great goalscoring form.
