Grimsby vs Burton Predictions

Grimsby and Burton will lock horns in a low-profile third round of the FA Cup tie on Saturday afternoon at Blundell Park.

Grimsby are 16^th in the League Two standings at the moment, while Burton hold the 21^st position in the League One table. Both teams are thus in the relegation scrap in their respective divisions.

Dino Maamria’s squad allowed at least two goals in three of the last five League One outings. They have reached the third round with a demolishing 6-1 victory over half-amateur side Chippenham Town in late-November. Grimsby stunned Plymouth 5-1 before eliminating Cambridge United 1-2 on the road in the opening two rounds of the FA Cup-
