Port Vale prepare to entertain Wrexham at Vale Park on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Valiants are clearly on top, having won 18 and lost only 5 of the 30 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vale Park was just last season, in April 2004, the Valiants carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Division Two match.
