Birmingham host Wrexham with both sides looking to continue unbeaten starts to the League One season.

The Welsh club top the table after four wins and a draw from their opening five fixture in an excellent start to life in the third tier after promotion last year.

The hosts, meanwhile, have edged their last three games by a single goal after an opening day draw with Reading as they bid to make an immediate return to the Championship.

The two clubs are both part-owned by high-profile American celebrities, though neither Wrexham’s Ryan Reynolds nor Birmingham’s Tom Brady are expected to be in attendance.

Here’s everything you need to know.
