Notts County continue their push toward the automatic promotion places as they face Grimsby Town at Meadow Lane. With the Magpies impressing in their last league match, we predict a 2-0 home win. Martin Paterson's side are full of confidence after a ruthless 5-0 demolition of Tranmere, extending their superb home record to five straight wins, during which they have conceded just 0.50 goals per game. Their underlying numbers are just as strong, posting 1.39 xG and only 0.96 xGA at home, highlighting both efficiency and defensive stability. The only concern is midfielder Oliver Norburn, who remains doubtful after picking up a knock in that Tranmere win.
Grimsby, meanwhile, aim to stay within touching distance of the playoff positions. The Mariners suffered a 3-1 defeat to Bristol Rovers, but arrive with no fresh injury worries. Their away form is respectable, averaging 1.75 points per game and conceding just 0.75 goals per match on the road. Defensively, they have been surprisingly solid away from home, keeping a clean sheet in 75% of their away fixtures, although their attack remains inconsistent at just 1.00 goal per away game.
As Notts County are on a five-game winning run and with strong xG performance, we predict Home Win, alongside Notts County Over 1.5 goals and Notts County to Score First.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 28 February 2026 at 15:00.
