Wrexham return to league action this weekend, facing off with another team yet to win in the Championship this season, Sheffield Wednesday.
Wrexham are still searching for their first league victory of the campaign going into the weekend.
However, they are predicted to beat Sheffield Wednesday, who have had a rough few months as a club.
Wednesday protests will take place at Wrexham as the Owls continue to hit out against their owner, Dejphon Chansiri.
Ahead of the clash, which is huge for both teams, we have made three predictions for the meeting.

One of the main talking points in the final two weeks of the summer transfer window is the future of Ollie Palmer.
Wrexham fans want Palmer to feature in the Championship after he scored twice in the Carabao Cup last week.
On paper, he’s the best back-up option for Kieffer Moore right now, as despite all the new attacking signings, none, barring Moore, can really act as a target man.
However, after already being left out against West Brom despite a brace earlier in the week, we expect Palmer to once again miss out on August 23.
Phil Parkinson answers critics
After a winless start against some tough opposition, Phil Parkinson’s ability to manage in the Championship is being questioned once again by some outside of the club.
Parkinson’s Championship record is not great, but to suggest he must be replaced after just two fixtures against two of the better teams in the division is premature.
This weekend should see Wrexham come out on top against a struggling team who have lost their only senior goalkeeper, Pierce Charles, to injury, and the narrative around the Dragons manager not being good enough can then hopefully stop for the time being.

Ahead of Sheffield Wednesday, it has been confirmed that Josh Windass is out for 4-6 weeks with an injury.
It means Parkinson must select a new forward line to start the weekend’s fixture after previously opting for Moore and Windass in Wrexham’s opening two matches.
Of all the options available – Sam Smith, Nathan Broadhead and Ryan Hardie – we believe Broadhead is the most likely to be given his first start in the second tier this season.
