Backing Barrow in a draw no bet scenario
To be fair, Lincoln City have done fairly well over the course of their season; as they've lost just once in six matches across all competitions. However, it's fair to point out that Lincoln City won just two of those six games, with three of them ending in stalemates. Barrow, on the other hand, have enjoyed relatively better form than Lincoln City; as they've won five of six games they've played so far this season. Furthermore, while Lincoln City play in a higher division than their hosts, they have no wins in their last five meetings with Barrow; considering Barrow have the advantage of playing at home, we're leaning towards them, with the draw no bet option.
Someone will blank
Barrow's recent run of results is due, in part, to their stingy defence; as they allowed just two goals in their last four matches. It's important to point out that Barrow's matches usually don't feature goals at both ends; at least one side did not score in three of their last four games. In like manner, Lincoln City have been involved in a lot of one-sided games when it comes to goals; as one team blanked in five of their last eight matches. Taking all things into account, we believe that one of these sides will keep a clean sheet.

Can Barrow re-live last year's dream of a cup upset?
Barrow arrive in this game in good form whilst Lincoln come into it off the back of a horrid weekend result. Sure, Lincoln City are a league above Barrow but that didn't stop the hosts last year as the memorably eliminated Ipswich Town from the cup on national tv. Could they do similar again?
Barrow have been one of the best teams in League Two so far; they've played six matches across all competitions, with five wins and a loss. Barrow will look to continue their fine form as they host Lincoln City; it'll be interesting to see how they'll match-up against the League One side.
Barrow Predicted lineup – Farman, Warren, McClelland, Canavan, Brough, Neal, Foley, Gotts, Kay, Gordon, Whitfield
Lincoln City's unbeaten run ended with a humiliating 4:0 defeat at the hands of Peterborough United; prior to that loss, Mark Kennedy's men were unbeaten in five games, with two wins and three draws. Lincoln City will pay a visit to the Holker Street Stadium on Tuesday; they'll hope to put their recent loss behind them with a win.
Lincoln City Predicted lineup – Wright, Eyoma, O'Connor, Poole, Robson, Bishop, Sørensen, Sanders, Garrick, Hopper, Scully
