Lincoln City face Burnley at Sincil Bank, Lincoln, Lincolnshire on Saturday, Oct 24 at 4:00 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose. Both clubs are deep in the relegation picture in the Championship, and defeat here could prove costly come the end of the season.

Lincoln City come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Burnley, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (0W 1D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Lincoln City and Burnley have split their 1 meetings almost evenly (1W–0D–0W). Their last encounter ended in Burnley won 0–1.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Lincoln City win or a draw looks most likely.
