Grimsby vs Shrewsbury Preview
Blundell Park will host Grimsby Town and Shrewsbury in a League Two round nine clash, with the Mariners aiming to recover from a 2-1 defeat to Newport County. York City loanee Mark Shelton picked up a knock in the first half, meaning fellow midfielder Ryley Reynolds is ready to step up if required. The Mariners have been particularly impressive at home, winning 60% of their last five matches and averaging 1.60 goals per game, while their 1.77 xG suggests they should create opportunities again.
The Shrews, on the other hand, have won only one of their last six games in all competitions after sharing the spoils with Colchester at the weekend. Moses Sesay will be the man to watch after scoring a brace in that encounter, while there are no fresh injury worries in the away camp. Shrewsbury's away record is a major concern, with the visitors taking just 0.17 points per game across their last six away fixtures and scoring only 0.17 goals per match.
Grimsby have turned their Blundell Park into a real fortress and with Shrewsbury struggling on the road, Home Win should be considered. Additionally, Under 3.5 goals market seem appealing as 80% of H2H meetings went bellow this line.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday, 3 October 2026 at 15:00.
