Lincoln City Preview – Imps to ease past league’s bottom club?
Lincoln City have been battling for promotion in recent times, but this season has been far different. The Imps have had a disappointing campaign, spending most of the year looking over their shoulder as opposed to pushing for the play-offs.
Overall, Lincoln have picked up nine wins, suffered 13 defeats and have drawn eight times. They are unbeaten in two, though, battling to a 2-1 home win over Morecambe before holding promotion chasing Wycombe Wanderers to a 1-1 draw at Sincil Bank last weekend.
City will be looking to stretch their unbeaten run to three with three points against struggling Doncaster on Tuesday. They are the clear favourites at 13/20.
Doncaster Rovers Preview – Another bad defeat for Donny?
Doncaster Rovers have had a sorry season up until now. Rovers find themselves rooted to the foot of the League One table with just 22 points to their name. They have won six, drawn four and lost a staggering 22 of their 32 league matches.
Since a 1-0 home victory over Shrewsbury Town two months back, Donny have gone on to lose nine of their following 11 League One games. Last time out, Gary McSheffrey’s side were hammered 4-0 at Portsmouth.
