Birmingham vs Lincoln Prediction

Birmingham City spent over £30 million in the summer of 2024 following their surprise relegation to League One and, despite teething issues, they are top of the third-tier on course for 100+ points as they now prepare to face a faltering Lincoln City side.

Chris Davies has found himself frustrated by Birmingham’s occasional ineffectiveness at both ends of the pitch but the Blues have barely wobbled throughout the campaign and their 3-0 defeat of Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium last weekend means they are now unbeaten in their last 11 matches across all competitions.

Lincoln City are under pressure at the moment with Michael Skubala searching for some form ahead of this weekend. The Imps were held to a goalless draw by Stevenage at Sincil Bank last weekend and that frustrating performance and result came on the back of three successive defeats in League One.

Birmingham have different priorities with League One promotion the main aim but, even with rotation, they should come out on top in this one with their home advantage.

Birmingham vs Lincoln Tip: Birmingham to win
