Former Wales midfielder Owain Tudur Jones says the "dream remains alive" for Wrexham who go into the final day of the Championship regular season firmly in the mix for a top six spot.

The Red Dragons, Hull City and Derby County head into Saturday's crucial round of fixtures in contention to secure the fourth and final play-off place in the second tier.

Phil Parkinson's side hold the slenderest of advantages ahead of the weekend as they sit above Hull on goal difference and are a point better off than Derby.

But Jones believes the fact Wrexham, on the back of three successive promotions, are even in contention to extend their campaign shows how well they have performed this term.

"It's not quite as simple as saying it's in Wrexham's hands," former Wales international Jones told BBC Radio Cymru's Dros Frecwast.

"They're on the same number of points (as Hull) and their goal difference is one better, so it's in their hands if they score more than Hull, but for Hull, it's exactly the same story.

"I feel that Hull have a slightly easier game against Norwich who have nothing to play for.

"Derby County, I feel, will win against Sheffield United at home, and that means Wrexham have to win.

"You have to try not to look at what happens elsewhere, hope that Middlesbrough still have a chance of finishing in second place.

"There's a lot going on, and I'm confusing myself looking at it. It promises to be an incredible weekend.

"But for Wrexham, not many people thought they would be in this situation, and the dream remains alive."

Wrexham's contest with Middlesbrough at Stok Cae Ras on Saturday gets under way at 12:30 BST.
