Salford Beat Strong Teams at Home


Karl Robinson’s Salford ended the League Two season with the third-best home record. The Ammies won 14 of their 23 games at the Peninsula Stadium and sealed six wins from their last seven at home

Salford beat three top-five sides during their strong run-in at home. They beat MK Dons 1-0, Notts County 2-1, and league winners Bromley 2-0 and had 37 shots across those victories.

The Greater Manchester team came back from a goal down to beat Grimsby 2-1 away in the play-off semi-final first leg. Salford allowed just 0.65 XG and Kallum Cesay and Adebola Oluwo scored.

Grimsby Inconsistent Away 


David Artell’s Grimsby failed to win in five of their last nine away matches in the 2025/26 League Two campaign. 

Grimsby dropped points in two of their last four away games, starting with a 2-1 loss at Chesterfield. Wins at Gillingham 4-1 and Cambridge 2-1 followed before a 1-1 draw with Tranmere.

The Mariners fell to a 2-1 home defeat to Salford in the League Two play-off semi-final. Reece Staunton scored in the first minute and Grimsby shipped two goals before half time.
