Shrewsbury Town prepare for a League Two fixture against Exeter City this Saturday, a match that marks the return of former midfielder Taylor Perry. The 14th-placed side will look to improve on a mixed run of form that includes a 2-1 win at Grimsby Town and a 2-0 home defeat to Stockport County in the EFL Trophy last Tuesday. Shrewsbury's recent standings show a team with 11 points from nine games, five points adrift of the automatic promotion places.
Perry, who scored his first Exeter goal in midweek, is preparing to face his old club for the first time. "It's always going to be a tough game at Shrewsbury Town and they've got some good players," the midfielder said. He added that he is enjoying his football and is focused on helping his new team secure a positive result at Croud Meadow.
Matt Taylor, the Exeter City manager, has given his preview for the trip. Their next challenge is a home game against 20th-placed Exeter, with kick-off at 3pm on Saturday at New Meadow. Following this match, Shrewsbury Town's next fixture is an away trip to face Bradford City on Tuesday, October 15th. Supporters can check all upcoming fixtures on the club's official site. The last meeting between the sides was a 2-0 win for Exeter in March 2025.
