Prediction: 1-1
Stockport County
Lincoln City will be eager to bounce back when they take on Stockport County on Saturday afternoon, following consecutive defeats to Birmingham and Crawley. With confidence slightly shaken, the hosts are likely to make changes to the starting XI in order to get back on course, including the returns of JJ McKiernan and Jack Moylan to the starting XI. Despite Lincoln’s attacking options, the Imps may struggle to break down a solid Stockport defence, especially with no new injury concerns to boost their side.
Meanwhile, the visitors head into the match on the back of three consecutive draws, showcasing their defensive discipline under Dave Challinor. The return of Fraser Horsfall from suspension further strengthens their backline, hinting that another tight, competitive game could be on the horizon. As both sides are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Saturday's clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on a low-scoring draw.
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.
