Wrexham make the trip across the border having been beaten just once in their previous eight matches, but the Reds, six points away from safety, have not picked up a victory in the last four outings.

Arch rivals Chester sacked manager Bobby WIlliamson on Sunday having only won once in 14 matches – they followed that up with a 1-0 defeat at Darlington last night – and Wrexham first team coach Foyle said the Reds are targeting victory in their battle to avoid relegation.

"Chester's manager has been sacked but that can have an effect, and you never know what formation the new man may go with," said Foyle.

"But Chester are there for the taking.

"They are not on a particularly good run so it is an ideal game for us to try to get back to winning ways.

"There is no better place to start than in a derby, but we have to stay focussed and keep doing what we've been doing.

"We will have good support after selling our allocation, it is just a shame we could not take more fans."

Wrexham operated with a three-man attack in Saturday's 1-1 home draw against fellow strugglers Mansfield Town with Reds' scorer Michael Proctor, Drewe Broughton and Chris Llewellyn leading the front line.

Admitting that Wrexham had not been at their best, Foyle said Wrexham have been working on their attacking play.

"I thought that for the first time on Saturday we looked a bit nervous and we have to take that away," added Foyle.

"We have been working hard on our play in the final third which we feel is important.

"We've been trying to rotate the front three more rather than having a static man up there.

"Our mentality is to pass the ball more and get players involved, and players into the final third."
