With a third straight promotion, Wrexham hopes to make history, and they are aware of the challenge that awaits them in League One.
The men of Phil Parkinson are winning. Not to be satisfied with only leaving the National League after 15 years, Wrexham followed up that victory with a second-place finish in League Two and an immediate promotion to League One. The whole schedule for League One in 2024–25 has now been made public!
On August 10 at 5:30 p.m., the Red Dragons kick off their season at home against Wycombe Wanderers. Later in the month, they play former Premier League teams Bolton Wanderers, who were defeated by Oxford United in last season’s play-off final, and Reading.
September’s schedule has Wrexham taking on rivals Shrewsbury Town and a crucial matchup with demoted Championship team Birmingham City, who attempted but was unable to play the fixture in the United States.
October is a busy month with six fixtures and in a quieter November, they face fellow promoted sides Stockport County and Mansfield Town.
A congested December and January includes eye-catching games with ex-top-flight teams Wigan Athletic, Blackpool, and Birmingham – while March is a hectic period, too. Wrexham round off their season on May 3 away to Lincoln City as they aim to become the first club to earn three consecutive promotions within the top five levels on the English football pyramid.
