Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Lincoln and MK Dons square off against each other at LNER Stadium in the League One round 24. Lincoln have been struggling to find their best form of late, with the team collecting only one point in total from the previous four league fixtures. The Imps are only two points clear of the relegation zone, meaning that Sunday’s football match is of big importance for the home team.
As a always, a man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Teddy Bishop, who scored a brace in the 2-2 draw with Cheltenham. MK Dons, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Oxford United. The Dons are only four points behind the playoffs berth, and they should take advantage of Lincoln’s poor form. Both Brown and Martin are pushing for a start, speaking of the away side.
