Accrington Stanley vs Grimsby Town Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

It’s been a remarkable turn in fortune for Accrington Stanley as they turned their season round from relegation contenders to a side which still has an outside shot of making the play off places. We are backing them to add another three points to their tally when they host Grimsby this weekend and a home win is available at 10/11 with bet365. For our correct score tip we think that it will be a close game which will see both teams finding the back of the net but ultimately we are backing Stanley to grab a 2-1 win, which is priced at 15/2 with the same site.

Accrington are now undefeated in their previous nine league games and once again look like the side which came so close to promotion last season. Their form at the Crown Ground has been solid and their undefeated run of seven games on home soil has helped them to a respectable record of winning 39% of their home matches this term. They are also looking a much more potent outfit these days and their last eight league games has seen a return of 17 goals, which averages out at over two goals per game.

Grimsby are in the midst of a fairly inconsistent run and their inability to put together a streak of results seems to have all but ended any hopes they had of making the play-offs. The Mariners have a fairly strong away record over the course of the campaign, but defeat in 42% of their games on the road suggests it is typically all or nothing for Marcus Bignot’s men.
