But there’s nothing to fear as the streets of London have been paved with points for Wrexham, who haven’t lost a game in the capital since a 1-0 defeat to Bromley in the FA Trophy final at Wembley Stadium on May 22, 2022.
The 3-0 win at Millwall 10 days ago made it eight games without defeat in London away games since their return to the Football League.
Phil Parkinson’s side won all three games last season.
Kieffer Moore and Lewis O’Brien scored in a 2-0 win at Millwall, where the Reds have twice celebrated their first wins of the Championship campaigns.
They also won 1-0 at Charlton while Ollie Rathbone scored the goal of the season in a 3-2 comeback win at Queen’s Park Rangers.
In League Two, they drew 1-1 at AFC Wimbledon and won 2-1 at Sutton United while the following season, there were two draws at Charlton (2-2) and Leyton Orient (0-0) in League One.
That eight-game unbeaten run came after an impressive set of results away at London opposition in the final season of the non-league era.
Wrexham won at Woking (3-2), Dorking (5-0), Dagenham and Redbridge (4-0) and Bromley (2-1).
The draws came at Boreham Wood, Wealdstone, Maidenhead and Barnet.
As for tomorrow’s game, it will be a new ground to tick off for Wrexham supporters, who definitely enjoyed their last trip to face The Hammers.
Brian Flynn’s Reds burst the bubbles as Kevin Russell grabbed a last-minute winner in a 1-0 FA Cup third round replay victory in 1997.
Wrexham have played West Ham 16 times in their history – and seven have been FA Cup ties.
The other cup victory was another 1-0 triumph in 1981 when Dixie McNeil scored an extra-time winner.
The last league encounter away was in the old Second Division in 1981 when Ray Stewart scored from the spot as The Hammers celebrated promotion back to the top flight.
And to continue the 1-0 theme, Wrexham lost there the season before, although Mick Vinter netted Wrexham’s winner at The Racecourse in another only goal outcome.
