Match preview

Gillingham will be desperate to kickstart their League Two campaign when they welcome an in-form Grimsby Town to Priestfield on October 24, 2026. The Gills endured a disappointing start, losing their only league fixture so far, scoring just two goals while conceding three. Their 0% win rate paints a stark contrast to Grimsby's impressive beginning. The Mariners arrive with a formidable record of three wins and one loss from their four outings, netting a remarkable ten goals and conceding just four. This translates to a 75% win rate, highlighting their attacking prowess.

Recent head-to-head encounters heavily favour Grimsby, who have dominated this fixture in recent times, including a resounding 4-1 victory. Gillingham will need to defy both current form and historical trends to secure a result. With the win probability evenly poised at 35% for a home win and a draw, and 30% for an away victory, this promises to be a tight affair. Watch for Grimsby's potent attack, particularly how Gillingham's defense copes with their prolific forward line. The Gills’ ability to find their attacking rhythm will be crucial if they are to upset the odds.
