Grimsby Town prepare to entertain Barnet at Blundell Park on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. All the previous meetings between the two have been won by the Mighty Mariners.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Blundell Park was less than a year ago, in March 2008, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4-1 thriller, in a League Two match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Grimsby Town at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Mighty Mariners will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
