Match preview

Our model makes Grimsby slight favourites, giving them a 47% chance of winning against 26% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Away win" is 2.12 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 2.5 goals in total (1.05 for Port Vale, 1.48 for Grimsby), which points to Under 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Port Vale sit 18th on 15 points; Grimsby are 6th on 20.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
