On Friday night, Lincoln will look to enhance their chances of promotion to the Championship, as the Imps travel to face Oxford United at the Kassam Stadium.
In a congested section of the League One table, 11th place Oxford are just three points shy of the play-off spots in the third tier of English football.
However, a poor recent run of form, including suffering three defeats in their last four league outings has hindered their hopes of moving into the league’s top-six.
A 1-0 defeat at struggling Northampton was a particularly disappointing result, especially as it was the third game out of four league matches that Karl Robinson’s team had failed to score.
That thing that may come back to haunt Oxford if they do end up missing out on promotion at the end of the season maybe their recent home form, as they have won just one of their last five matches on home soil.
Once again scoring goals has been an issue at the Kassam Stadium, as the U’s have failed to score in four of their last five home league matches.
Similarly to Oxford United, the visitors recent form has not done them much good in the race for promotion, as the Imps head into this clash on the back of a four-game winless run.
The run has seen Michael Appleton’s team fall four points adrift of the two automatic promotions spots.
However, there is still time to recover and get into the promotion spots, in what is turning out to be a thrilling fight for a place in the Championship next season.
Lincoln City have a mixed recent record on their travels in League One, as they have lost just once in 12 away matches, but have also won just once in five league outings.
Forebet predicts that this game will produce a low-scoring draw, which would do neither teams hopes of promotion much good.
