FIXTURE NEWS | EFL Trophy Group Stage Draw

Wrexham to face Newcastle United Under-21s in Northern Section Group B

22 June 2023

Wrexham AFC will face Crewe Alex, Port Vale and Newcastle United Under-21s in the EFL Trophy group stage, after the latter were drawn as the final team in Group B this morning.

The Red Dragons, winners in 2005, return to the competition this season for the first time since 2007.

With the EFL groups split into pre-determined groups, with a focus on minimising travel time to maximise player recovery time, Wrexham were added to Group B prior to the draw.

We will take on fellow Sky Bet League Two side Crewe, as well as Sky Bet League One opposition in Port Vale.

Newcastle United Under-21s will head from North East England to North East Wales following today's draw. The dates and venues for the fixtures will be confirmed in due course.
