Now, let's closely examine the match odds for Grimsby vs Walsall ahead of the weekend clash.
Grimsby Odds: 69/50(2.38) (5.00)-42.02%
Draw Odds: 21/10 (3.10)-32.26%
Walsall Odds: 11/5 (3.20)-31.25%
*These odds are correct at the time of publication and may be sampled across various sportsbooks, so they will not always add up to 100%*
This appears to be a tight one to call, noting that none of the two teams has been handed more than a 50% winning chance. You may be tempted to bet on both teams to score, but the current defensive stats equally point toward a tough clash. A draw attracts a modest price of 3.10, which equals a winning chance of 32.26%. With little likelihood that this will yield more than two goals, under 2.5 goals is another betting market to consider as it attracts a 60.24% chance of occurring.
Grimsby vs Walsall Lineups and Team News
Grimsby
Grimsby is unbeaten in four games ahead of this clash with Walsall. The last four outings have been massive improvements for the hosts who now occupy the 15th spot in England League Two. However, a worrying home performance is a caveat ahead of this clash because Grimby Town is currently ranked as the 5th-worst team in the home performance ranking. They have won 4, drawn 8 and lost 5 at home, bagging a total of 20 points from 17 home games. But with victory in the reverse leg to defend, recent results inspire some hope with no suspension worries ahead of this encounter with Walsall.
Grimsby predicted a lineup-Crocombe, Maher, Waterfall, Smith, Emmanuel, Holohan, Morris, Driscoll-Glennon, McAtee, Lloyd and Taylor.
Walsall
Walsall's biggest challenge ahead of this trip to Grimsby Town is a shaky form. They have been inconsistent, noting that Walsall only bagged one win in their last 10 League Two matches. Most of their results in the last 10 games were draws. The inability to win games is made worse by the fact that Walsall has bagged only 17 points from 17 trips. From these trips, the best we expect from Walsall in this trip is a draw. They have won 3, drawn 8 and lost 6 of their 17 away games so far.
Walsall predicted lineup-Evans, Monthe, Daniels, McEntee, Riley, Kinsella, Comley, Hutchinson, Low, Knowles and Williams.
Player to Watch: John McAtee
Grimsby forward John McAtee is a player to watch in this game. He has four goals and 4 assists so far, making him one of the most important players in the home squad. McAtee played a center-forward the last time out against Mansfield and whole he hasn't scored in four games, he should aim to get back to the score sheet.
