There's a key five clash in League Two this weekend as Gillingham make the trip up the east coast to take on Grimsby Town. The Gills have started the season very well, as have The Mariners and picking a winner for our match prediction for this crucial game is going to be tricky.
Currently, both these teams occupy spots in the top five of League Two. David Artell's Grimsby Town are fifth in the table with 21 points from their 12 games. Gillingham boss Gareth Ainsworth has seen his team also play 12 games, but they have taken one more point to be third on 22 points.
In terms of form, Grimsby come into this game looking for a bit more consistency. After thrashing Cheltenham Town 7-1 at home, they then beat Salford City 2-0 on the road, but then lost 3-0 to Doncaster at home in the Football League Trophy. Their luck didn't change last weekend either as they were beaten 2-1 at home by Colchester United.
However, Gillingham's recent form is also very patchy. They were beaten 3-2 at MK Dons in the league before a 2-1 away defeat to Colchester United in the Football League Trophy. They returned to Priestfield last weekend but could only draw 1-1 with Cheltenham Town.
