League leaders Luton are holding firm at the top of the table in League Two and their great form doesn’t look as if it is going to be slowing up anytime soon. Grimsby are doing alright as well at the moment with a four-match unbeaten streak of form going and they can put a bit of pressure on the top seven potentially with a win in this one.

Grimsby TownLuton Form
The hatters are steaming along still with brilliant form, having lost just one of the last sixteen league games. They are unbeaten in six at the moment with a W4 D2 record and they are unbeaten in three on home soil as well. They have goal aplenty in them and they have scored at least two goals in four of their last five games. They have tallied 35 goals on home soil this season in eleven games which is a phenomenal return and that has helped 73% of their home games go over 2.5 goals. They have also been leading at half time in eight home fixtures and a Luton/Luton half-time/ full-time bet is never a bad option to consider going into one of their home games. On top of their goals, they have claimed a clean sheet in 45% of their home games this season too.
Grimsby Form
The Mariners have strung together a four-match unbeaten streak of form in the division and they have only lost two of their last thirteen league outings so have been in pretty good shape by and large. They have taken a clean sheet in each of their last three games and they have earned seven of them in their last twelve. Their away record this season reads W5 D2 L4 so not too bad and they are W3 D2 L1 in their last six so there is every chance that they will push the Hatters pretty hard in this one. That having been said though they have only won one away game against a side in the current top half of the league. They are one of the better away sides in the division though and have averaged 1.3 goals per game on their travels.
Head to Head News
Grimsby picked up four points from their two games against the Hatters last season in League Two. Both teams have scored in each of the last three meetings between these two clubs and Luton are winless in their last four home fixtures against the Mariners (D3 L1).

Top Betting Tips Luton v Grimsby
Grimsby are a decent side and can dig in and compete in this one. Still, though Luton are playing some very good stuff at the moment and can be backed to go and take the win, but perhaps only by the one-goal margin.
