The last time the two teams met at Lincoln City was back in November 2000, over five years ago, as the The Red Imps squeezed past their rivals by a scoreline of 3-2 in a (Associate Members) match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the The Red Imps at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Shrimps come away with an easy victory. Away win
