Our calculations are made based on 20-game form, historical head-to-head (H2H) statistics and the view of the betting market, and you can get it at top odds of 1.33.

Goal Statistics

Salford City's defensive record is very strong, K. Robinson's men having conceded 1 or less in 12 consecutive League Two matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Grimsby Town makes sense in this context.
