Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Grimsby Town will look to escape the danger zone when they face Wrexham in the League Two 40. The Mariners are undefeated in the previous six league matches, which is surely fuelling fans with optimism ahead of the visit of Wrexham. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but Sudan forward Abobaker Eisa should sneak into the starting eleven after coming as a substitute in a 1-1 draw with Gillingham.
The Red Dragons, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 1-0 loss to Tranmere. Wrexham are determined to stay in the automatic promotion berth, but beating Grimsby on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. As for the away team, experienced attacker Ollie Palmer returns to the starting eleven after coming off the bench in the last league fixture.
Highlighted Team (Grimsby):
Founded back in 1878 as Grimsby Pelham, Grimsby Town are a professional football club that compete in League Two, the English fourth tier. Grimsby Town welcome their opponents at Blundell Park, the stadium which has the capacity of 9,027 people (all seated).
The Pilgrims are well known for their black jerseys with white stripes, whilst blue is the dominant colour of their away kit. Grimsby Town made it to the FA Trophy final on two occasions (2012/13, 2015/16), but they have yet to win the title in the competition. The likes of Hull City and Scunthorpe United are regarded as the club’s main rivals.
The Pilgrims registered their biggest win on September 4, 1925, as they crushed Tranmere Rovers 8-0. Speaking of their heaviest loss, Grimsby Town were beaten by Arsenal 9-1 on January 28, 1931. Pat Glover is sitting in top position in the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 180 league goals on his account.
