Both sides sit precariously at the bottom of the table. Leicester are currently 22nd, one place and one point behind the Baggies, with a four-point

Because the EFL’s profit and sustainability rules are about trying to make sure clubs are not losing unsustainable amounts of money.

Despite going on a summer spending spree, paying about £30m for players and having one of the highest net spends around, Wrexham are well within the financial parameters because of the commercial revenue already being brought in thanks to deals with giants such as United Airlines and HP.

There had been the sense Wrexham had been steadily finding their feet in the Championship going into the international window.

Without a defeat in four, there had been growing signs of the summer rebuild starting to take shape as a side.
