Our prediction for this League 1 match:
LNER stadium will host Tuesday’s football game between Lincoln and Northampton. Lincoln aim to build on a 2-1 win over Stockport County and you should know that they are eyeing their fourth home win of the process. The likes of Dylan Duffy, Jovon Makama, Tom Bayliss, and Tyler Walker remain on the sidelines with injuries, while Adam Jackson is unlikely to recover in time to face the Cobblers.
Northampton, on the other hand, have been in a fine form of late, beating both Leyton and Crawley, while sharing the spoils with Stockport County. Northampton and Lincoln seem to be evenly matched at the moment and we predict that they are going to share the spoils at LNER stadium. All Alik Koiki, Patrick Brough, and Callum Morton are out of contention with injuries for the away team, while Tom Eaves is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Lincoln):
Lincoln City are one of the oldest clubs competing in the League One as they were founded back in 1884. Lincoln City FC were established as an amateur association, but they turned professional in the 1891/1892 season.
Back then they played at John O’Gaunts stadium, but nowadays Sincil Bank is the club’s home ground. Sincil Bank was opened in 1895, holding up to 10,120 people. The club’s main colours are red, white and black, whilst the Imps wear green shirts and white shorts when playing on the road. Lincoln City and Mansfield Town are regarded as the club’s fiercest rivals, but the Limps had some sort of local rivalry with Peterborough United, Hull City and York City as well.
Albert Iremonger (42 years and 312 days) is the oldest footballer to have played for the club, whilst Shane Nicholson (16 years and 112 days) is the youngest one. Lincoln City recorded a thrilling 9-1 victory over then local rivals Sleaford in their first game.
