A high-stakes EFL Cup clash will take place at Bloomfield Road when Blackpool and Lincoln City lock horns in round two. Blackpool have made an excellent start to the campaign, winning eight of their last 10 matches in all competitions. The Seasiders followed up a 3-1 EFL Cup victory over Grimsby by beating Stockport 2-1 in League One, while they have been particularly strong at home, winning 80% of their last 10 games there. They have also conceded just 0.40 goals per game across their last five home matches. Both Munroe and Kouassi could be handed starting roles after featuring from the bench at the weekend.
Lincoln, meanwhile, have suffered back-to-back defeats against Middlesbrough and Portsmouth, but their overall form remains impressive, with seven wins from their last 10 games. The Imps have scored in every one of those matches and boast a 70% BTTS rate. However, experienced midfielder Tendayi Darikwa is expected to miss out, with Andrei Coubis likely to step in.
As Blackpool's strong home form gives them the edge in Tuesday's encounter, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Blackpool or Draw and Over 1.5 goals (91% of the H2Hs produced at least two goals).
This EFL Cup match will be played on Tuesday 25 August 2026 at 19:45.
