Phil Parkinson has urged his Wrexham players to appreciate their strong Championship position as the season reaches its crucial run-in. The Red Dragons have claimed 26 points from their past 12 league matches since Christmas, more than any other team in the division, sitting sixth with a four-point buffer over seventh-place Southampton.

Wrexham's recent form has been impressive, with 13 points from the past 15 available in away matches. The team remains unbeaten in their last five away league games, averaging 1.5 points per game on the road - only five teams have performed better in the Championship this season. Parkinson emphasizes mental freshness and proper rotation as key factors heading into the final stretch.

Wrexham faces Charlton Athletic before their highly anticipated FA Cup fifth-round clash with Chelsea. Parkinson hopes to enter that marquee fixture on the back of three successive league victories, stressing the importance of preparation and execution. The Welsh club's fourth successive promotion push continues to gain momentum as they navigate both league and cup commitments.
