Notts. County prepare to entertain Grimsby Town at Meadow Lane on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Magpies are clearly on top, winning 57.58% of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Meadow Lane was less than a year ago, in April 2005, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Two match.
