George Dobson believes Wrexham's squad depth will afford certain fringe players the chance to impress in the FA Cup at the weekend.

Phil Parkinson's side are in first-round action at Harrogate Town on Sunday (15:30 GMT) as they look to continue their strong recent record in the competition.

Indeed, Wrexham have reached the fourth round of the cup contest in each of the past two seasons under Parkinson.

And midfielder Dobson believes the trip to League Two Harrogate will be beneficial for players eager to get further minutes under the belt.

"We have a huge squad so there’s going to be a lot of players hopefully getting minutes," he told BBC Radio Wales.

Should Wrexham overcome Harrogate, they will be just one step away from potentially facing Premier League sides in round three.

"It’s a great opportunity to get to the third round and having a really good game hopefully against a real big boy," added Dobson.

"I know the club have done really well in the last couple of years, so hopefully we can do it again."
