Cardiff City-Wrexham closes Championship opening day on Monday evening
Welsh neighbours Cardiff City and Wrexham meet on Monday evening at Cardiff City Stadium to close the opening day of the 2026-2027 Championship season. This marks their first league meeting in 24 years, with Cardiff's previous victory coming 3-2 on March 22, 2002, before just under 16,000 spectators. Nearly double that attendance is expected this time. The match will be broadcast worldwide, with particular attention anticipated in North America following Wrexham's prominence through the documentary "Welcome to Wrexham".
