Grimsby Town's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Mighty Mariners have scored 4, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Grimsby Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 3 points from 9 matches. Wycombe Wdrs. are leading the way in the Coca-Cola League Two, with their 9 games giving them a return of 21 points.
