Recent respective form guides

Notts. County's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Magpies have scored 4, a worringly large 7 have been leaked at the other end.

Lincoln City's away form is none too clever either, picking up four victories from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 12 goals for the The Red Imps, and 7 goals against.

Notts. County are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 35 points from 35 matches. Lincoln City see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 43 points from their 36 games played so far,
