Grimsby vs Luton Prediction & Pick

Grimsby fought its way to a shocking draw against Luton on Saturday. The Mariners opened the scoring with a goal from Gavan Holohan in the 43rd minute. Back-to-back goals from the Hatters gave them a 2-1 lead before Harry Clifton scored in the 67th minute to draw the score even one more time.

It was an amazing effort by the road squad, but the underlying stats show that Luton was the one that gave the game away. The Hatters controlled the ball for 62% of the game and tallied a whopping 11 corners. Grimsby logged only a single corner and drew 5 yellow cards compared to Luton's zero.

Look for Luton to prove why they are the favored team in this one with an exciting win at Blundell Park.

Final Score Prediction: Grimsby: 1 | Luton: 2

Grimsby vs Luton Best Bet

Backing over 2.5 goals to be scored here is an intriguing option as 12 of the 21 total shots were on goal in the first battle. However, I find myself leaning toward backing Luton to win this one before the 90 minutes are up. Manager Rob Edwards has to make a few defensive adjustments to account for Grimsby's attackers, but he has a squad that is experienced in earning wins in road environments.

Bet: Luton ML (-125)
