Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Cheltenham will look to make amends for a massive 5-0 loss to Cambridge United when they take on Lincoln in the League One round 22. The Robins produced their worst display of the season on Tuesday evening, meaning that the lack of confidence could prove to be a big problem for the home team. Both Joseph and Vassell are pushing for a start. The Imps, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to Crewe.
Lincoln aim to put an end to their three-game losing run in the League One, and they should take advantage of Cheltenham’s shaky defence. Defender Timothy Eyoma is banned for the visitors, while Adam Jackson is unlikely to feature against the Robins after limping off with injury in the midweek defeat. In their last meeting at the venue Lincoln defeated Cheltenham 2-0.
Highlighted Player (Chris Hussey):
Born in Hammersmith, England, Christopher Hussey is an experienced defender who plays for Cheltenham Town in the League Two. After spending his youth career at the likes of Woking and AFC Wimbledon, Hussey continued playing for the Dons at senior level.
He played for a number of English clubs in the past, but, no doubt, the most notable one is Sheffield United. Chris Hussey made seven appearances for the Blades in the League One, but nowadays he is a League Two player. His main position is left-back, but he is capable of producing fine displays as a left midfielder as well.
It has to be noted that he was called up for the England C team as a standby. Christopher Hussey made his Cheltenham Town debut on August 21, 2018 in a 1-1 draw with Macclesfield Town. He scored his first goal with the Robins in a 4-2 loss to Mansfield Town.
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.
