Recent respective form guides

Lincoln City's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Red Imps have scored 7, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Peterborough's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Posh's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 9 goals for and 7 against.

Lincoln City are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League Two with a return of just 8 points from their 11 games thus far. Peterborough's total of 20 points from their 11 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League Two.
