Lincoln to arrive in playoffs on back of a win
Lincoln have only won two of their last five matches meaning their fans might fear the worst heading into the playoffs. A win can change all that though and on Sunday they face a Wimbledon side without a win in three and who have only managed two wins in their previous 10 away games. When you consider that Wimbledon's season is done and dusted now with their safety confirmed you have to expect their levels to drop slightly too. If Wimbledon aren't on top of their game, they don't beat Lincoln. There is a reason one is fighting to get out of the league whilst the other battled to stay in it.
Goals all round
Even when considering the patchy form of both Lincoln and Wimbledon over recent weeks both have continued to find the net ensuring their games regularly see both teams score. For Lincoln that's been the case in six of their last 10 matches whilst Wimbledon have seen both sides bang in goals in five of their last 10; that does include four of their previous five games too though so there is definitely value in the prediction. The last two meetings have seen both sides on the score sheet as well.
Pigott to score anytime
When you consider Wimbledon have only recently confirmed their safety in the league it is almost hard to believe that Joe Pigott has scored 20 goals for them this season. He has though. The youngster has been linked with several ‘bigger' clubs and looks destined to leave in the summer. With five goals in his last five games there is a strong chance that he checks out from Wimbledon with a goal against Lincoln.
Pre-game stats for Lincoln vs Wimbledon
Lincoln to win but bigger games ahead
Despite Lincoln and Wimbledon being separated by 26 points in the League One table, both teams will be pretty content with their positions at game week 46. For Wimbledon, they have overcome adversity to stay in the division without the nerves of a final day fight. For Lincoln it is a similar story but for them it's the playoff spot that has been booked already. Wimbledon might ease off now. Lincoln cannot because momentum is critical.
