Recent respective form guides
Accrington Stanley's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While The Reds have scored 9, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Grimsby Town's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Mighty Mariners have hit 7 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Accrington S. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 4 games have yielded only 3 points. Grimsby Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 3 points from 4 matches.
