Lincoln City Preview – In-form Imps to take the points on home soil?

Michael Appleton’s Lincoln City have made a superb start to their League One season. After 13 matches played, the Imps sit fourth on 26 points, just four points behind leaders Hull City. Lincoln have picked up an impressive eight wins so far, drawing two and suffering only three defeats from the other five.

City have battled back well after disappointing back-to-back defeats before the international break. Having lost to Doncaster Rovers and Portsmouth, Lincoln have responded with a draw with Accrington Stanley and a much-needed win over Swindon Town. However, they were beaten at Plymouth Argyle in the second round of the Emirates FA Cup last time out.

Our betting prediction:
Lincoln to win to nil
6/4

(odds taken 1642 GMT, Monday 30 November)

 
The club from the East Midlands are certainly on the rise under the experienced Appleton, and Lincoln should be in the mix for promotion to the EFL Championship come May. Can they keep up their good start by securing maximum points at home on Tuesday?

Wigan Athletic Preview – Even more woe for the bottom club?

Wigan Athletic have had a miserable 2020 so far. Having fallen out of the Championship after a points deduction, the Latics, who are now under the interim management of Leam Richardson, have been woeful in League One up until now.

Wigan are rooted to the foot of the Championship table having lost nine times already. Athletic have scored just nine goals, shipping 20 at the other end. They are already five points adrift of safety, and things are surely only going to get a lot worse for the club from Greater Manchester.
