Portsmouth to Win
Portsmouth recorded a superb 3-0 win over automatic promotion-hopefuls Rotherham at Fratton Park on Tuesday evening and with their confidence brimming, Pompey can push for victory again on Friday. Danny Cowley’s side have claimed 17 points from the last 21 on offer on the south coast and they should have too much firepower for a tepid Lincoln outfit.
Clean Sheet – Portsmouth
The clean sheet that Portsmouth secured on Tuesday against a hapless Rotherham side was their third shut out on the spin at Fratton Park and Pompey’s mean defence could add a fourth to their run against Lincoln. The Imps failed to breach the Portsmouth backline when the teams last met in November (3-0) and they could struggle to land a blow again in the return fixture this week.
George Hirst to Score Anytime
Portsmouth striker George Hirst ended a five-game dry spell with a goal against Rotherham in midweek and with his self-belief restored, the 23-year-old should be a danger man worth watching on Friday. Hirst notched one of Pompey’s efforts when they beat Lincoln at the LNER Stadium 3-0 in November and he has the quality to make a similar impact against the same opponents at Fratton Park.
Portsmouth vs Lincoln Match Preview and Team News
Portsmouth
Kieron Freeman, Jayden Reid and Reeco Hackett are all out injured for Portsmouth this week. Portsmouth’s 3-0 win over Rotherham on Tuesday was both impressive and timely following a run of five fixtures without success. The playoffs seem out of reach this season for Pompey, however, they will still be determined to finish the campaign on a positive note.
Lincoln
Lincoln are set to be without the injured Cohen Bramall, TJ Eyoma, Josh Griffiths and Lewis Montsma this week, while Morgan Whittaker is still suspended. Michael Appleton will hope to be able to include Liam Bridcutt and Brooke Norton-Cuffy in his squad for the trip to Portsmouth, however.
