Grimsby Town prepare to entertain Boston United at Blundell Park on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. Of the two previous meetings, the Mariners have won one and drawn one.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Blundell Park was less than a year ago, in February 2006, the Mariners carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Two match.
