Left-wing back Tremarco has been brought in by manager Brian Little from Tranmere Rovers and had his contract, which runs until the end of the season, taken over by Wrexham.

Although Tremarco has featured in high profile matches with League One highfliers Tranmere, the 22-year-old said Sunday's eagerly awaited derby is up there with them and he is aiming to give Wrexham supporters something to cheer about.

"It is probably one of the biggest games I have played in," said Tremarco today.

"There are no derbies at Tranmere, but I did play for them at Nottingham Forest and at home against Leeds earlier this season.

"There have been some big games like them but for intensity and atmosphere, this is definitely up there with them.

The fans would love us to win for bragging rights and we are going there to try and do that."

Tremarco understands the significance of the cross border rivalry between the sides and said the fact that Wrexham are desperate for points in the battle to avoid relegation just makes it an even bigger fixture.

"A few of the lads have been talking about the rivalry with Chester for a few weeks now, and I know some of the lads at Chester who have said the same thing," he added.

"It is a big game anyway – every game in now until the end of the season – but the fact it is a derby against Chester just spices it up even more.

"I'm sure a couple of tackles will be flying in and the crowd will be really up for it like we are.

"We can't have any players going missing in big games."

However, Tremarco said Wrexham have to remain focussed with the job in hand but he believes the Reds have got enough in their armoury to trouble Chester, who sacked manager Bobby Williamson on Sunday after recording one win in 14 outings.

"We have to treat it as any other game, although you can't hide the fact it is Chester," said Tremarco.

"We've got to be 100 per cent at it, get the ball down and play, which we should be able to do as it is a decent pitch. And we've been working on passing it around from the back.

"Chester have been struggling and if we can get at them and keep it tight the first 15-20 minutes, who knows.

"If we get at them, we can cause them a few problems and give the defence a rest!"

Wrexham, six points away from safety, have been beaten just once in their previous eight matches while Chester, 17th in the table, are still not out of trouble.

And with Wrexham still to play a number of other teams struggling at the wrong end of the table, Tremarco stressed the importance of taking points off those sides: "I think we can come away with a result, hopefully a win," he said.

"Draws are good away from home, but we have to looking at beating teams.
"And there are teams around us in the table who have still got to come to The Racecourse where we've got to get results.

"I've said it before, if we don't beat teams around us, we don't deserve to stay up."

Tremarco, who has turned in some impressive performances since joining the Reds in January, admitted he would like to extend his stay at The Racecourse but said the priority was to pull clear of the drop zone.

"Nothing will probably happen until the end of the season, and we have to concentrate on getting safe," added Tremarco.

"I would like to stay. I've enjoyed my time here, they are a good set of lads and I get on well with the gaffer and the staff."
