How it turned out

We projected about 2.8 goals and the game finished with 3. Both teams scored. We made Grimsby or Draw 77%. It lost.

What we said beforehand

We expect about 1.1 goals from Newport County and 1.7 from Grimsby, so Grimsby come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Grimsby or Draw. This covers Grimsby or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 77 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.23, which works out at about 81 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
✓Newport County have won one of their last five.
✓Grimsby have won two of their last five.
✓Four of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in one of the last five meetings.
