Lincoln City - Bristol Rovers predictions and free betting tips [16/03/2024]

On 16th of March, in the League 1, the third strongest division in England, Bristol Rovers will take on Lincoln on the LNER Stadium. Let's take a look at the state of both teams and try to reach a decision that would help us increase our stake.

Lincoln

The Imps are slowly navigating between divisions. Last year the lads showed average results, taking 11th place. Currently, they sit in the 9th spot of the league table. In the 34th match of the season, the Imps beat Port Vale with a scoreline of 2:0. In the subsequent round, they won against Shrewsbury (3:0).

Then they drew with Stevenage (0:0). After that, the team secured a resounding away victory over Barnsley, with the score of 5:1. And in their last match, Lincoln trounced Cambridge with a handsome scoreline of 6:0.

Bristol Rovers

The team is always travelling between League 1 and League 2. 3 seasons ago, they took up the last place in the third division of England and were relegated to the lower league, where a year later they climbed up to the 3rd position. The last season in League 1, the team finished 17th and are currently in 11th position.

In the 33rd round, Rovers suffered a defeat from Northampton (1:3). After this, they won against Carlisle with a score of 2:1. In the next game, the team won with a narrow margin against Leyton Orient. After that, they suffered a defeat from Derby County with a scoreline of 0:3. And in the last match, they drew with Fleetwood (0:0).

Head to Head

The teams last met on the 2nd of September, 2023. That match ended in a draw (1:1).

Prediction

In this clash, Lincoln is the main favourite. The team has been playing brilliantly in recent games, securing victories. They have managed to score 11 goals in just their last 2 games. Rovers are not at their best right now, so I am backing a convincing win for the hosts.

Total Prediction

I think the team can pull off a score-fest, so I suggest placing a bet on total overs (TO) of 2.5.
