Best Tip: Grimsby to win

As the stadium fills and the Grimsby players prepare themselves for this clash, the bookies are predicting success for them. The odds and our pre-match stats below also point that way, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) data we use in our predictive algorithms. The Blundell Park hasn't been an easy place to go for Shrewsbury in the past, and we we'd back more of the same on Saturday afternoon. A win / draw / win home win is the way to go.
