Match Facts
Grimsby Town lost three of their first four Football League games against MK Dons (W1) but are unbeaten in three such meetings with the Dons since (W1 D2).
MK Dons have won two of their three away Football League games versus Grimsby Town (L1), last winning at Blundell Park in March 2008 under Paul Ince, a season in which they were crowned League Two champions.
Grimsby Town have won just one of their last seven home league games (D1 L5), though that sole victory did come in their last outing at Blundell Park in a 1-0 win over Forest Green Rovers. Before that clean sheet, the Mariners had conceded 23 goals across their prior six such winless matches.
MK Dons have lost three of their last five away league games (W2), failing to score in each of those defeats.
