Draw

Our first Lincoln vs Shrewsbury prediction is for the game to end in a draw. Lincoln lead the entire league with their 20 draws this season. At home, the Imps drew 14 of their 22 league games (W6 L2). Also, 2 of the last 3 home H2Hs against Shrewsbury ended without a winner.

Lincoln to Score First

They already scored 9 goals inside the opening 15 minutes in home fixtures this season. At the same time, Shrewsbury conceded the first goal of the game in all of their last 7 matches.

Under 2.5 Goals

Our final Lincoln vs Shrewsbury prediction is that there will be no more than 2 total goals in the match. Only 1 of Lincoln’s last 4 league games had been a high-scoring affair.

Also, 4 of the last 5 H2Hs had fewer than 3 goals in them.

Lincoln vs Shrewsbury Lineups and Other News

Lincoln

Lincoln threw away a 2-goal lead on their visit to Morecambe and lost 2-3. It was simply a lack of motivation that led to this second consecutive defeat for the Imps. They played well for about 60 minutes but then lost interest.

Might give some of the youngsters minutes in this game. Both Donnery and Adamson could be in line for rare senior appearances. Lincoln have to wait and check on the fitness of 6 players before making their selection. In any case, some of the fringe players can be expected to start.

Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury stopped an awful 8-game winless run (D1 L7) on Tuesday with a lucky 2-1 home win vs Bristol Rovers. Hardly impressed but still managed to give their fans some positive emotions in what was the final home outing of the campaign.

The Shrews have a small squad and not much room for rotation with numerous important players out injured. Still, backup keeper Burgoyne + teenagers Craig and Barlow could make rare starts in this one. None of the 5 regulars nursing injuries is expected to be risked.
