Oldham Athletic and Grimsby Town take on each other at Boundary Park in what promises to be a close encounter, with 1-1 our predicted outcome. The Latics are in excellent form, collecting 1.70 points per game overall and winning three of their last five, including a strong 3–1 victory over Tranmere. Their home form is even more impressive with 2.00 PPG and 60% home wins, supported by a solid defensive record of just 1.00 goal conceded per home match. Oldham also keep 40% clean sheets across all venues, showing good organisation even when not dominating games.
The Mariners, meanwhile, are unbeaten in four and performing well away from home (1.75 PPG), but the probable absence of in-form forward Charles Vernam—three goals in his last three games—is a major setback. Without him, their away scoring average of 0.75 goals per match becomes a concern, especially against an Oldham defence that rarely collapses. Grimsby’s strength on the road lies mostly in limiting chances, with 75% away clean sheets, though their xGA away rises to 1.77, suggesting the defence allows more than results indicate.
As Grimsby away games average just 1.50 goals and their defence keeps matches tight, we are tempted to place our bets on Under 2.5 goals, alongside Half-Time Draw and Draw.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 14 March 2026 at 15:00.
