History of the Barnet v Grimsby Town fixture

Grimsby Town face a trip to Barnet at Underhill Stadium on Saturday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Its been a kind fixture in the past, resulting in a win each time for the Mighty Mariners.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in November 2007, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 3 winners in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Barnet's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Bees have scored 4, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Grimsby Town's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Mighty Mariners have hit 7 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Barnet are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 19 points from 23 matches. Grimsby Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 14 points from 23 matches.
