Grimsby Town vs York City predictions headline an intriguing League Two clash at Blundell Park, where the Mariners host promoted York City on Saturday 31 October at 12.30pm (UK time).
The hosts sit mid-table and arrive on the back of a big away win, while York City have flown out of the blocks this season but carry a glaring weakness to exploit in their away form.
Our best bets focus on the Mariners at home and a game that could have goals in it, given how freely York have conceded on their travels.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has studied the League Two fixtures and come up with two selections for Grimsby Town vs York City, both built around the hosts’ home advantage.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Grimsby Town Draw No Bet | 10/13 (10bet) | Grimsby look well placed to take care of business on home soil. The Mariners have won three and drawn one of six at Blundell Park, and they travel into this one off an emphatic 4-1 victory at Gillingham that snapped a difficult run. York City, for all their early-season points, are still without a win on the road and have lost three of six away from home. Taking Grimsby on the draw-no-bet line gives a little insurance should the visitors spring a surprise, while still backing the much likelier winner. |
| Over 13.5 corners | 10/3 (BoyleSports) | This should be an open, end-to-end affair between two of the division’s more attacking sides. Grimsby have scored 19 goals already and will pour forward at home against opponents who defend deep and concede chances on their travels. York, in turn, carry enough going forward to force play into the Grimsby box. Games involving these two have tended to produce plenty of set-piece pressure, and with the Mariners likely to see most of the ball at Blundell Park, the corner count can climb towards a bigger total at a generous price. |

How Grimsby Town go into the game
Grimsby Town go into the weekend 11th in League Two on 17 points, having scored 19 goals and conceded 16 in 13 games. Home form has been solid enough, with three wins and a draw from six at Blundell Park.
At Blundell Park the Mariners have been hard to beat, and they come in off the back of an emphatic 4-1 win at Gillingham last time out. That result ended a lean spell and should lift confidence for a winnable home assignment.
How York City go into the game
York City have made an excellent start to life back in League Two, sitting fifth on 20 points, and at home they have been formidable, winning five and drawing two of seven without defeat. The problem is that nearly all of that good work has come on their own ground.
On the road it has been a different story. York City are still without an away win this season, with three draws and three defeats from six, and they were beaten 3-1 at Barnet last time out. That trip to Blundell Park will test a side that has shipped 11 goals away from home.

Grimsby Town vs York City head-to-head
These two have no recent league meeting on record, with York City only recently back in the English Football League after their National League title. That lack of history makes current form the better guide here.
