Wrexham boss Little is looking to keep the Reds' hopes of avoiding relegation alive by recording three points against the Silkmen.

"The last two weeks have been a blow," said Little today. "We know the situation is not good, we are not pretending it is, and we have to win.

"As every game goes by it makes it tougher if we don't win. Hopefully we can get three points and take it from there.

"We will go out trying to win and give the fans a bit of belief. We won't give in, there is too much to play for."

Wrexham have only been out of the drop zone once since October, when they beat Bury 1-0 on December 4.

And Little said playing catch-up for the majority of the season has taken its toll.

"We have been our own worst enemies most of the season," said Little. "At the moment we have just not been good enough and don't score enough goals to make teams worry about us.

Striker Marc Williams and midfielder Danny Williams, both second half substitutes in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat at Mansfield Town, have played themselves into contention.

Marc scored Wrexham's goal while Danny was making his first appearance since October after undergoing back surgery.

Meanwhile, Macclesfield boss Keith Alexander was an interested observer at Field Mill as Mansfield beat Wrexham 2-1 on Tuesday.

Alexander said: "It would have been nice if the game had ended in a draw.

"We don't really want anyone winning games at the moment but on the
night Mansfield were worthy winners."
