Who wins?
Brit Predictor's model rates Grimsby to win as the most likely result (42%). It gives Rochdale 32% at home, a draw 26% and Grimsby 42%, so its call is 2: Grimsby to win. The bookmakers, with their margin removed, have it 28% / 25% / 47%, a call of 2. Expected goals are 1.2 for Rochdale and 1.5 for Grimsby; the single most likely score is 1-1. Careful: there is little recent data on Rochdale, usually a promoted side, and the market tends to be right about those.
Rebuilt after kick-off using only matches played before it. A double chance (1X, X2, 12) is called when the top two results are within 10 points.
