Game Analysis

  • There is barely a price between the sides. Grimsby is the shortest price on a book of 2.25 / 3.70 / 2.63 (1 / X / 2), an implied 40.6%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 40.6% / 24.7% / 34.7% on an overround of 9.5%.

  • In the league table Grimsby sit 4th on 0 points (0W 0D 1L) with Burton 2nd on 1 point (0W 1D 0L).

  • Grimsby read L-L-L-W-W-D across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (2W 1D 3L) — more bad than good.

  • Burton read L-W-D-D-L-D across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (1W 3D 2L) — patchy.

  • Our last-six model flags 2 qualifying strikes here. Reading Grimsby first, then Burton, out of their last six: O 2.50 4 and 4, GG 4 and 4.

  • Grimsby lean hardest on Kieran Green (9.5), Harvey Rodgers (9.5), Charles Vernam (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

  • The read: With barely anything between them on price, this is one to leave alone in the 1X2 market and attack in the goals or handicap markets instead.
