Grimsby Town host Northampton Town at Blundell Park at 3pm on Saturday, with the Mariners looking to end a three-game losing run against one of the division’s bottom sides.
Our Grimsby Town vs Northampton Town predictions and betting tips cover a League Two meeting between a strong home side out of form and a Northampton team short of goals and confidence. Grimsby’s recent dip has coincided with two away trips, and a return to Blundell Park against struggling opponents looks the ideal tonic.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects Grimsby to respond at home against a Northampton side that has managed just one win all season.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Both teams to score – No | 21/20 (Betfair Sportsbook) | Northampton are among the division’s lowest scorers, with just four goals in eight games and only two of those coming on the road. The Cobblers have failed to find the net in four of their eight outings and have scored just twice in their away games, drawing a blank at Shrewsbury. Grimsby, for all their recent dip, have conceded only four at home and kept four clean sheets this season. With Northampton so blunt in front of goal, backing against both teams scoring at evens is a sound starting point. |
| Grimsby Town 2-0 | 15/2 (bet365) | Grimsby need a response after three straight defeats, and few opponents are as welcoming as a Northampton side sitting 23rd on seven points. The Mariners are strong at Blundell Park with three home wins and just four goals conceded there, while the Cobblers have won once all season and scored only twice away from home. A controlled home win to nil fits the profile, and with Northampton so unlikely to score, a 2-0 scoreline that leans on Grimsby’s tidy home defence rates a fair each-way shout at 15/2. |

How Grimsby Town go into the game
Grimsby sit 11th on 13 points but arrive on the back of three straight defeats, most recently a 1-0 loss at Port Vale. That slide, built largely on the road, has taken the gloss off a promising opening.
Home form tells a happier story, with three wins from five at Blundell Park and just four goals conceded there, so the Mariners remain a difficult proposition in front of their own supporters.
How Northampton Town go into the game
Northampton sit 23rd on seven points from eight games, with a single win all season and only four goals scored. Their last outing was a 1-1 draw at York that was at least a point on the board.
The Cobblers have been particularly toothless away from home, scoring just twice in their travels and failing to win on the road, which makes a trip to a strong home side a daunting assignment.
