Match Facts
Newport County have failed to win in each of their last two league matches against Grimsby (D1 L1); the last time they went three EFL matches without a win against the Mariners was between 1978 and 2017 (run of five).
Grimsby Town put an end to a three-match losing streak away at Newport in their last such match, winning 2-0 in September 2022 thanks to goals from Bryn Morris and Harry Clifton.
Newport County have lost just two of their last 11 League Two matches at home (W4 D5) and are unbeaten in their last three (W1 D2).
Grimsby Town have dropped 21 points from a winning position in League Two this season, two more than any other team. They have gone 1-0 up in each of their last three league matches but only won one (D2).
