Prediction: 3-1
Grimsby
Port Vale will be looking to return to winning ways when they host Grimsby at Vale Park on Monday. The Valiants are fighting hard for automatic promotion, but a 3-2 loss to Carlisle last time out was a setback they will be eager to bounce back from. Midfield engine Ben Garrity is a major doubt, which could impact Vale’s creativity, but they have shown enough consistency throughout the season to be confident at home.
Grimsby, meanwhile, are eyeing a spot in the League Two playoffs, though their hopes took a big hit in a heavy 4-0 defeat to Swindon. With midfielder Cameron Gardner sidelined, the Mariners will need a big response if they’re to get anything from this crucial encounter. However, given their inconsistency on the road and recent struggles at both ends of the pitch, it’s hard to see them stopping a determined Port Vale side with promotion firmly in their sights. Taking everything into account, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise.
Highlighted Team (Port Vale):
Nicknamed the Valiants, Port Vale are a professional club that compete in the League Two. Port Vale welcome their rivals at Vale Park, and they wear white and black kit when playing in front of home fans. Yellow, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of their away kit.
The Valiants’ home ground, which was built in 1950, can hold up to 49,768 people. Championship side Stoke City are seen as one of the club’s fiercest rivals, but their rivalry is pretty healthy. The two teams first met on December 2, 1882, with the Potters emerging triumphant (1-0).
The Valiants maintain a rivalry with fellow League 2 club Crewe Alexandra as well. Speaking of the club’s titles, it has to be noted that Port Vale have won Football League Trophy on two occasions (1993, 2001). A 9-1 win over Chesterfield from September 24, 1932 is the club’s biggest triumph.
