Phil Parkinson says he "can't wait" for Wrexham's home double header this week on the back of their draw with Ipswich Town last time out.

The Red Dragons extended their unbeaten Championship run to six matches thanks to the stalemate at Portman Road.

They return to action against Bristol City at Stok Cae Ras on Wednesday night (19:45 GMT) before hosting Blackburn Rovers in north Wales three days later.

Having failed to win any of their opening five home league games of the season, Wrexham go into the contest against the Robins having won three in a row in the Championship on their own patch.

"I can't wait. The last game against Charlton, the atmosphere was brilliant. As I said after the game, that's key for us here," said the Wrexham boss.

"There's a reason that this place has been difficult for the opposition to play and our lads have loved playing here. We've got to really crank the atmosphere up tomorrow."

Despite sitting 14th in the table, Wrexham are just three points adrift of the play-off places and Parkinson feels the league is wide open this term.

"I think the division is so tight, isn't it?" he said. "I think everybody in every interview is saying the same.

"Coventry have pulled away at the top and there's Sheffield Wednesday with the points deduction at the bottom, but the rest of the division is very tight and that's what makes it such a great spectacle.

"The games are very competitive, no quarter given at all, and everybody can beat anyone on the day.

"It's a great week for us. It started off well at Ipswich.

"I was pleased with physically how we looked coming on the back of the international break, and now we look to build on that tomorrow."
