Competition: League One
Market: Stevenage win
Odds: 8/11 @ 1xBet
Hoping to extend on their play-off charge this weekend, Stevenage will welcome Lincoln to Broadhall Way on Saturday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, although Stevenage might have only made their League One return this season, Steve Evans’ side are enjoying another history-making flurry. Last seen earlier in the week making another statement as they secured a 5-2 victory against Crystal Palace U21s while on EFL Trophy duties, the former Gillingham boss should find the mood in his camp at a red-hot high. Once again battling it out in the play-off chase, the Hertfordshire-based outfit have won each of their previous four appearances across all competitions. Signing off October with a stunning 3-1 romp against Derby, Stevenage will certainly be looking to lay down another marker here. Gaining a reputation for their continued free-scoring performances in the final third, it should also be noted that Evans’ men have 13 strikes on their four-match winning run. Hoping to make up some ground in the top-two chase this weekend, the Boro should be relishing Lincoln’s arrival here.
As for the visitors, while the Imps might have mounted a last-gasp comeback at home against Port Vale last weekend as they snatched a 1-1 draw, it doesn’t cover what has been an inconsistent spell for Lincoln. Along with opening November with a 2-1 loss at home against Morecambe, Michael Skubala’s side have recorded just a single win from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Although Saturday’s guests might still be dreaming of the chance to mount a genuine play-off charge of their own, Lincoln have shown some extended issues away from Since Bank. Including a routine 2-0 loss at the hands of Peterborough last month, the Imps have won just one of their last seven away fixtures within 90 minutes – a run that stems back to August 19th. Facing what looks set to be a stern examination in Hertfordshire this weekend, we are backing a home victory here.
