Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson expects Grimsby to keep it tight and win.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Andy Cook to score anytime11/10 (bet365)Andy Cook leads the line for a Grimsby side sixth in the table and among the meaner defences in League Two, with just eight conceded. In addition, the experienced striker faces a Shrewsbury defence that has shipped 13 goals in eight games, the kind of leaky rearguard he thrives against. Although Grimsby lost 2-1 at Newport last time, they are strong at Blundell Park, and with the hosts likely to create plenty, Cook is a fair price at 11/10 to get on the scoresheet.
Grimsby Town to win to nil2/1 (bet365)Shrewsbury have been poor, scoring just seven goals all season and losing 3-0 at Rochdale and 2-0 at Fleetwood on their recent travels. Grimsby, by contrast, have kept four clean sheets and are solid at home, where their defensive strength should nullify a blunt Shrewsbury attack. A Grimsby win to nil is a realistic outcome because of the visitors’ struggles in front of goal, and 2/1 is a fair price for the hosts to win without conceding at Blundell Park.

How Grimsby Town go into the game

Although Grimsby lost 2-1 at Newport last time, they sit sixth and have one of the division’s meaner defences, with just eight conceded.

Moreover, they are strong at Blundell Park and should have too much for a struggling Shrewsbury.

How Shrewsbury Town go into the game

Shrewsbury have scored just seven goals all season and also lost 3-0 at Rochdale and 2-0 at Fleetwood recently.

As a result, the leaky and blunt visitors face a tough trip to Grimsby.
