Wrexham chase back-to-back wins at Blackburn

Wrexham head to Ewood Park today to face Blackburn Rovers in the EFL Championship, with kick-off at 15:00 UK. A win would be their first back-to-back victories of the season, and it would follow the 4-1 home win over Preston North End on 17 October that got the Reds back on track.

Kieffer Moore and Sam Smith both scored against Preston. Phil Parkinson switched from a lone frontman and two number 10s to a two-man attack for that game, and Leader Live says the change worked, even if Preston were a side it describes as struggling. It is the first time this season the club has lined up that way.

Leader Live suggests that going with two strikers again could be the best route to three more points. It also says Parkinson will be looking no further than Rovers this week, and notes that two-man attacks have worked for him before. The outlet asks whether Moore and Smith could become the new Paul Mullin and Ollie Palmer, though it accepts that only time will show that.

The same preview ran under the same headline in the North Wales Chronicle, the Denbighshire Free Press and the North Wales Pioneer. The sources agree on the headline and the Preston result, and the detail on the attacking set-up comes from Leader Live alone.
