Grimsby Town Preview – Can Mariners grab important win?
Although Grimsby Town have suffered three league defeats on the trot, the hosts stand a decent chance in returning to winning ways here which would lift Grimsby level on points with current leaders, Chesterfield, at the top of the National League.
Losses to Wealdstone, Notts County and Aldershot have resulted in Grimsby dropping down to 3rd place but The Mariners had won eight of their preceding 10 matches in the non-league top flight and they’ll be keen to return to that sort of form on Friday night.
Grimsby have also won six of their last seven matches at Blundell Park and they’re unbeaten in each of the previous seven meetings at home against Southend United as well.
Southend United Preview – Can Shrimps pick up?
Southend United find themselves perched precariously just above the relegation zone in the National League after having had to endure a tough run of results which has seen the visitors lose four out of their last five matches.
Despite recording a convincing 4-1 win against Dover Athletic at home, Southend have also suffered losses against Chesterfield, Dagenham & Redbridge, Boreham Wood and Woking in recent times and these have outweighed Southend’s minimal successes.
Southend have also lost their last five away games on the trot so the visitors are expected to have their work cut out at Grimsby on Friday night.
