Wrexham Trio Doubtful for Stockport County Clash
Wrexham fans are anxiously awaiting news on the fitness of three key players ahead of their crucial clash against Stockport County on Saturday. Paul Mullin, Elliot Lee, and Jake Hyde all picked up knocks during the recent draw against Barrow, leaving their participation in the upcoming match uncertain.
Mullin and Lee Face Late Fitness Tests
The biggest concern surrounds Paul Mullin, the prolific striker who has been instrumental in Wrexham's impressive start to the season. The 28-year-old forward sustained a knock in the second half against Barrow and was forced off early. While the initial prognosis suggests it's not a serious injury, Mullin faces a late fitness test to determine his availability.
Elliot Lee, the creative midfielder, also left the Barrow game with a knock. He is another key player for Wrexham, known for his ability to unlock defenses and create chances. Like Mullin, Lee is facing a race against time to be fit for the Stockport match.
Hyde's Return Uncertain
Meanwhile, Jake Hyde, who recently returned from injury, is also nursing a knock. The experienced striker has been limited in his appearances this season but has shown his value in the limited opportunities he has had. His return to the starting lineup against Barrow was a promising sign, but his fitness for the Stockport game remains uncertain.
Importance of the Match
This game holds significant importance for both Wrexham and Stockport. Wrexham, currently in second place in the table, will be looking to maintain their strong start and keep pace with leaders, Notts County. Stockport, on the other hand, are desperate for points to climb out of the relegation zone.
The absence of any of these key players could significantly impact the outcome of the match. Wrexham manager, Phil Parkinson, will need to carefully assess the fitness of his players and make crucial decisions on the team selection.
