Wrexham AFC prepared for a Championship fixture against Derby County following a three-week international break. To maintain fitness during the hiatus, manager Phil Parkinson organized a closed-door practice match against Wigan Athletic.

In the subsequent match at Pride Park Stadium, Wrexham secured a 1-1 draw. Derby County took an early lead in the ninth minute via a long-range shot by Sam Szmodics. Wrexham managed to equalize in the final two minutes of the game when Ollie Rathbone scored a close-range goal assisted by Kieffer Moore.
