Lincoln City prepare to entertain Torquay United at Sincil Bank Stadium on Saturday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Red Imps are clearly on top, having won 13 and lost only 5 of the 25 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Sincil Bank Stadium was less than a year ago, in May 2003, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division Three match.
