Bournemouth will look to return to winning ways when they face high-flying Lincoln at the Vitality Stadium in the EFL Cup last 32. The Cherries are without a win in their last three matches, but they showed plenty of attacking intent in a 2-2 draw with Newcastle at the weekend. Rotation is expected from the Premier League side, with David Brooks, Gannon-Doak, Lewis Cook, and Daniel Jebbison all pushing for starts. Bournemouth’s recent matches have been highly entertaining, averaging 4.4 goals per game over their last ten outings, while both teams have scored in every one of those matches.
Lincoln, meanwhile, continue to exceed expectations and remain unbeaten in the new Championship campaign after a respectable 1-1 draw with Southampton. The Imps have been particularly strong away from home, winning five of their last six road games and conceding only 0.67 goals per match in that period. However, injuries to Tendayi Darikwa and Ben Hamer reduce their options, while Danish striker Mikkel Ladefoged is pushing for a start after finding the net from the bench at the weekend.
As Premier League quality and home advantage should make the difference in Tuesday's EFL Cup game, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside Bournemouth Over 1.5 and and Over 2.5 goals (Bournemouth games average 4.4 goals, suggesting another open contest).
This EFL Cup match will be played on Tuesday 8 September 2026 at 19:45.
