Torquay Utd. face a trip to Wrexham at Racecourse Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Gulls will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 10 and win only 4 of the 17 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in April 2007, the Dragons carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Two match.
