Barrow vs Grimsby Town Predictions

There is plenty on the line when Barrow host Grimsby on Friday.

Barrow are poised to finish in the play off spots at the end of the campaign as they are currently in sixth, five points ahead of Crawley in seventh. They’ll need to maintain form before the end of the campaign in order to avoid a battle for that last play off spot.

Grimsby, meanwhile, are dangerously close to the bottom three. They are five points clear of Colchester in 22nd, but the latter also have a game in hand.

Current Form

Barrow’s current form

At the beginning of February, Barrow lost three games in a row against Wimbledon, Forest Green and Salford. But, they have recovered well from that blip to go five unbeaten, winning three of those against Gillingham, Newport and Colchester.

Grimsby’s current form

Grimsby have won just two matches this year against Forest Green and MK Dons respectively.

Last time out, they lost 3-1 at home to Wrexham.

Team News

The main omission from the game concerns Grimsby Town’s top scorer Danny Rose, who remains out of action due to injury. Justin Obikwu and Donovan Wilson will likely lead the line in his absence.

Scoreline Prediction

Grimsby have scored more than one goal in a game on just one occasion this year so goalscoring is a big problem. Barrow should have enough to score a couple for a comfortable home win.
