Competition: League One
Market: Lincoln win
Odds: 6/5 @ 888sport
Looking to extend on their League One purple patch in midweek, Lincoln will welcome Burton to Sincil Bank on Tuesday night.
Starting with the hosts, while Lincoln might have long since accepted that they will not be snatching a shock play-off spot this season, the Imps are enjoying what has been a stellar run of form. Last seen over the weekend putting in another eye-catching display as they secured a 2-0 victory away at Wycombe, Mark Kennedy’s side are riding what has become a remarkable wave of momentum. With their sights now firmly set on picking up a top-half finish in 2023, the former Macclesfield boss finds his side enjoying a six-match unbeaten run over the past month. With their recent purple patch highlighted by a 2-0 win against Plymouth on April 10th, Lincoln have certainly found a real clinical edge in the final third. Likewise, keeping a clean sheet in three of their last four League One appearances, Tuesday’s hosts should be relishing a midweek showdown at Sincil Bank here.
As for the visitors, while Burton might have shocked many earlier in the month as they claimed an action-packed 3-2 victory against Sheffield Wednesday, Dino Maamria’s side are seeking some much-needed stability. Last seen over the weekend putting in a toothless display as they slumped to a 1-0 defeat away at Derby, the Brewers have claimed just a single win from their last four League One appearances. Opening up the midweek fixtures holding a commanding eight-point buffer over the drop zone and almost sat in third-tier limbo, the Staffordshire-based outfit have shown some extended issues away from the Pirelli Stadium this season. Including a 3-2 loss against Charlton on April 10th, Burton have picked up just a trio of League One away victories since opening 2023. Taking just a single point from their last three contests on the road, a home win can be found at appealing odds on Tuesday night.
