Gillingham vs Grimsby Town Preview
Priestfield Stadium will host a League Two clash in which Gillingham aim to return to winning ways after sharing the spoils with Port Vale in midweek. The Gills had 1.88 expected goals in that encounter and will feel they could have taken all three points. There are no fresh injury concerns, while veteran striker Garath McCleary could be handed a starting role. Gillingham have been relatively reliable at home, collecting 1.83 points per game across their recent fixtures and scoring 1.83 goals per match.
Grimsby Town, on the other hand, are determined to end a seven-game winless run after playing out a 2-2 draw with Rochdale. The Mariners showed plenty of attacking intent, recording an impressive 2.89 expected goals, but their defensive frailties remain a concern. Albanian defender Edon Pruti has undergone surgery on a broken leg, although he was not expected to start. Grimsby have struggled on their travels, failing to win any of their recent away matches and conceding 1.80 goals per game.
With Grimsby conceding 1.80 goals per away game and both teams scoring in 80% of their recent away matches, Gillingham to win, Over 1.5 goals and Both Teams to Score markets seem tempting.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday, 24 October 2026 at 15:00.
