Head to Head Record Evaluation:

2. Grimsby 2-1 Wealdstone | 29/01/22
3. Wealdstone 1-0 Grimsby | 26/10/21

Perhaps surprisingly the sides have only met 3 times before in all competitions and in these 3 games Wealdstone have the bragging rights having won last time the pair faced off on the pitch and having the upper hand record wise with 2 wins out of the 3 games.

A total of 5 goals have been netted in total across the sides meetings, not exactly what you might call a goal fest every time the sides meet however it is recent form that shapes our prediction this time.

Recent Grimsby and Wealdstone Form Analysis:

Last 5 Grimsby Games:

1. Grimsby 5-3 Everton U21
2. Barrow 2-2 Grimsby
3. Grimsby 0-1 Chesterfield
4. Swindon 2-2 Grimsby
5. Grimsby 1-2 Tranmere

Considering their aspirations of reaching the play-offs in League Two, Grimsby have hardly shown form that is indicative of this in their last 5 outings. The side have only won once in a thrilling 5-3 victory over Everton's academy side in the EFL Trophy, in the league however it's a different story as the side have been struggling to find their footing in recent games, losing 2 and drawing 2.

The defence has been somehwat of an achilles heel for Grimsby so far this season as indicated by their last 5 matches. They have been unable to keep a single clean sheet and in the same space of time and conceded 10 at an average of 2 per game. Up front is where they have found joy though with the side bagging 10 of their own, not enough to score themselves out of their defensive woes but a promising stat nonetheless.

Last 5 Wealdstone Games:

1. Wealdstone 1-0 Braintree
2. Hartlepool 1-1 Wealdstone
3. Wealdstone 1-1 Forest Green Rovers
4. Wealdstone 2-0 West Brom U21
5. Solihull Moors 1-1 Wealdstone

Wealstone are on the opposite side of the spectrum and will be much happier with recent form hoping it continues into their tie against Grimsby. They have been able to keep an undefeated streak in their last 5, having won 2 and drawn 3, there will be hope of turning more of these draws into wins but an undefeated streak is nothing to look down upon.

Wealdstone have also been able to shown much better defensive capability having recorded 2 clean sheets in their last 5 games, in this time the side have also only conceded 3 goals all coming in draws. Up front they have not been anywhere near as prolific as Grimsby however they have done enough to get results in front of the net. They have managed to bag 6 in 5, a decent scoring rate and when combined with a poor opposition defence makes both sides scoring an appealing bet.
