Grimsby vs Salford: the head-to-head

Grimsby and Salford’s encounters since 2020 have been a tale of close balance, with Grimsby edging the series 6-4 while two draws keep the rivalry tight. Across 12 meetings the teams have produced an average of 2.83 goals per game, a figure that underscores the frequent offensive output. In 92% of the clashes more than one goal was scored, while 58% saw three or more, and both sides managed to score in 58% of the matches. Grimsby’s 18 goals against Salford’s 16 highlight a marginally higher scoring rate for the former. Home advantage has tilted the balance: Grimsby have won only twice at home, losing four times, whereas away they have been unbeaten, winning four and drawing two. The latest encounter on 15 May 2026 ended 1-2 in favour of Salford at their ground, and the next fixture is scheduled for 26 December 2026.
