Fleetwood return to Highbury Stadium aiming to build on a solid run at home, where they average 1.80 PPG and score 1.80 goals per match. With Grimsby struggling on the road, we predict a 2-0 home win. The Cod Army's home games tend to be lively, producing 3.00 total goals on average, and Fleetwood have scored in every home outing so far. Defensively they are less stable at home (1.20 conceded), but their strong chance creation (1.39 xG) keeps them competitive in most fixtures. Holgate and Rooney remain sidelined, but there are no fresh injury worries following the goalless draw with Salford.
Grimsby head into their first game of 2026 with a mixed form but boosted by a 1-0 win over Shrewsbury. They have struggled away from home, taking only 0.75 PPG, and their defensive record on the road (1.75 conceded) remains an issue. However, they do carry a scoring threat away from home, averaging 1.25 goals, and their xG numbers (1.58 away) suggest they will create chances again. There are no fresh injury concerns for Grimsby.
Given Fleetwood's superior home numbers and Grimsby’s away weakness, we believe that there is big value in betting on Home Win, alongside Fleetwood Over 1.5 goals and Fleetwood to Score First.
This League 2 match will be played on Thursday 1 January 2026 at 15:00.
