Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Fleetwood will be aiming to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Cheltenham when they take on Lincoln at Highbury Stadium. The Cod Army aim to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Cheltenham Town, with the team eyeing their first league win since January 15. Stephen Crainey should opt to make changes to the team that suffered the loss at Whaddon Park, with both Macadam and Hayes pushing for a start.
The Imps, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to relegation strugglers Doncaster. Lincoln have been struggling in front of goal of late, and seeing that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of Fleetwood’s last four league fixtures, a low-scoring affair is on the cards at Highbury Stadium. Defender Joe Walsh is banned for the visitors as he was sent off in the last league match.
Highlighted Player (Callum Camps):
Callum Camps is yet another product of Rochdale football school. Born in Stockport, England on November 30, 1995, Camps came through Rochdale youth team before making his senior debut on April 13, 2013 in a 2-2 draw with Port Vale.
He has been playing for the Dale ever since and it has to be noted that his most successful season was the 2016/2017 as he scored eight goals in 44 appearances in the League one for the club. Despite being born in England, Callum Caps is eligible to play for Northern Ireland national team through his grandmother, but he has only one cap with the Northern Ireland U21 team.
He made his debut with the U21 team in a 2-1 loss to Macedonia on October 13, 2015. His main position is central midfield, but he is capable of playing as both defensive and attacking midfielder as well.
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.
