Recent respective form guides

Lincoln City could not have a worse home record, losing every single one of the last six matches played! The Red Imps have conceded a disappointing 18 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 1 of their own chances.

Stockport County's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Hatters have hit 4 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Lincoln City see themselves just below half way in the Blue Square (Conference) Premier, showing a record of 4 points from their 4 games played so far,

Stockport County's 6 points from 4 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 9th position.
