Preview

Grimsby are yet to concede a goal in League Two this season after following up a narrow opening-weekend victory over recently relegated Exeter City with a goalless draw against Walsall in gameweek two.

Fleetwood Town travel to Grimsby unbeaten across four fixtures this season and yet to concede a goal. The Cod Army avenged a frustrating goalless draw with Gillingham by beating Shrewsbury 4-0 in midweek to advance into the third round of the Carabao Cup.
