When a Ryan Bowman hat-trick secured a 3-2 win over Notts County and a place in the third round of the FA Cup, Shrewsbury went on to lose their next four league games. However, they got back to winning ways on New Year’s Day and boss Matthew Taylor will be hoping for another victory.
The Shrews have a good record in the FA Cup and find themselves in the third round for the seventh straight season. They also have good memories from the last time they played Wrexham when a 3-0 victory in 2007 all but condemned the Welsh club to relegation from the Football League.
But this is a new-look Wrexham side who have been on the rise ever since being taken over by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in 2020. Currently third in League Two, they have won four of their last five games, scoring 12 goals in the process and conceding on just four occasions.
Can Phil Parkinson’s side cause an upset? Below, we'll show you how to watch Wrexham online, including the Shrewsbury Town v Wrexham live stream.
