Owing to an otherwise healthy group, thereโs just the lone fitness worry for the Lincoln City manager Michael Skubala to be concerned about. Lewis Montsma (Cruciate ligament injury) wonโt be playing here.
๐ง Prediction
Our feeling is that Carlisle United are likely to breach the defence of this Lincoln City team, although one goal isnโt likely to prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
We can see both teams to score in a 1-2 victory for Lincoln City at the end of the 90 minutes. Could easily go either way, this.
