Grimsby Town, Recent FormGrimsby Town will have been reasonably pleased with their 1-1 draw against Morecambe, not least because of the valuable point gained.
They have bagged 9 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 16 times in that period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their last 13 home games.
Grimsby Town will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form at Blundell Park, they've lost their last 3 league games in a row there and not had a home win in 6 games.
Goalscorer Danny Rose will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Grimsby Town.
Forest Green Rovers, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Wrexham will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Forest Green Rovers.
It seems pretty certain that Steve Cotterill will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
The Forest Green Rovers travelling support have had something to shout about on the road via the goals from Christian Doidge, who's scored 4 goals in their last 6 league matches away from home.
