Manager Phil Parkinson insists Wrexham will not take anything for granted with three of their next four League One games at home.

Wrexham are unbeaten at the Stok Racecourse this season and have won six of their seven games.

Parkinson’s side host Exeter City on Saturday before visits from Lincoln City and Barnsley.

"³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ form’s been good – we’ve got to look to not take that for granted," Parkinson said.

"We’ve got to look at what we’ve done well at home and what we need to reproduce.

"It’s one game at a time as always and we look forward to welcoming Exeter."

Wrexham are third in the table ahead of Saturday’s game and will be looking to bounce back after a 1-0 defeat at Stockport County last weekend.

Parkinson described his side’s third league loss of the season as "frustrating".

"Stockport played a shape we’ve come up against many times and we didn’t function, first of all without the ball in the way I know we can against that shape," Parkinson told ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Sport Wales.

"We showed once we started passing the ball with the quality that we did in the second period we could have got back into the game.

"It always hurts when you lose, especially to Stockport because they’re our local rivals, but we’re in a good position in the league table.

"We’ve got to take the lessons from that game and look at Exeter closely, which we have been this week, and picking the team with the conditions and the training in mind which we feel is the right one to start this game."
