Cambridge United aim to build on a 2-0 win over Walsall and given Grimsby's ups and down, we predict a 1-0 home win. The U's will be without Kylian Kouassi and Korey Smith, but both were not missed in their convincing 2-0 win over Walsall. They are in solid form overall, averaging 2 points per game, and are particularly strong at home with 2.5 PPG. Cambridge has been tight at the back, conceding just 0.6 goals per game, with 50% clean sheets. Offensively, they score 1.4 goals per game, with both teams to score in 50% of matches.
The Mariners have no fresh injury concerns and come off a 1-0 win over Shrewsbury. Their recent form is mixed, averaging 1.2 points per game, with slightly better away form (1.25 PPG) than at home. They are solid defensively, conceding 1 goal per game, but scoring has been limited (1 goal per game), and BTTS is low overall at 30%. H2H shows a fairly balanced history: in 17 meetings, Cambridge has 7 wins, Grimsby 6 wins, and 4 draws. Matches tend to be low-scoring; only 1 out of 17 games exceeded 3.5 goals, and both teams scored in 41% of encounters.
Cambridge United are a real force to be reckoned with at home and given their solid defence, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, Under 3.5 and Under 2.5 goals.
This League 2 match will be played on Sunday 4 January 2026 at 15:00.
