Grimsby Town take on Shrewsbury Town in their last game of the year. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment, our prediction firmly points toward a 1-1 draw. The Mariners head into this clash after a 0-0 draw with Oldham, showing solid defensive discipline at home with 1.17 PPG and conceding just 1.33 goals per game. Their attack has been less consistent, averaging 1.67 goals per match at Blundell Park, but their overall expected goals (1.64 at home) suggests they are creating chances. With 33% clean sheets at home and a 50% BTTS rate, Grimsby have been competitive, though goals have often been shared.
The Shrews, meanwhile, aim to bounce back after mixed results, securing 0.90 PPG overall but showing potential away with 1.17 expected goals and 1.17 goals scored per match. They tend to be involved in open games, reflected in an 80% BTTS rate overall and 100% away, but their defence has been vulnerable, conceding 2.17 goals per game on the road. Manager Michael Appleton has his full squad available, which should provide flexibility in both attack and defense.
With both sides seeing goals in 50-80% of matches, BTTS is our main betting tip for this League Two clash, with additional value on Over 1.5 goals and Shrewsbury or Draw.
This League 2 match will be played on Monday 29 December 2025 at 19:45.
