Lincoln City prepare to entertain Cambridge United at Sincil Bank Stadium on Sunday evening, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 14 games played, The Red Imps have recorded 6 wins, and Cambridge U. have come away with 3 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Sincil Bank Stadium was just last season, in December 2002, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Division Three match.
