Peterborough United
- Peterborough are bottom of League One after four defeats and one draw in their last five in all competitions, highlighting the concerns ahead of our Peterborough United vs Lincoln City prediction.
- Posh have been leaking goals all over the place for the duration of the campaign and their position in the relegation zone is well deserved.
- Darren Ferguson has had no wins from the past five, the latest coming from a 3-0 defeat at Exeter followed by a 3-2 loss at Huddersfield.
Lincoln City
- Lincoln City have three wins, one draw and one decent 2-1 Carabao Cup defeat in their last five, a key note in the Peterborough United vs Lincoln City preview for this match.
- Michael Skubala’s changes to their identity have taken them to another level.
- The set-pieces are always a threat and the team is much more organised, pressing and able to get out of trouble.
- The only absentee for Lincoln is Jack Moylan.
Head-to-Head
- Lincoln’s 5-1 win over Peterborough last January is a bad omen for The Posh ahead of this visit.
- This fixture has been very evenly matched in the third tier, with Posh holding a narrow edge in wins.
- Posh won the last meeting at this ground 2-0 in October 2023 while the Imps ran riot in January 2025.
Key Players
-

-

Betting Insights
- Imps are +185 to win, which seems a little short considering Posh are under pressure and Lincoln have momentum. With this in mind, our Peterborough United vs Lincoln City betting tips suggest looking at the away side’s value.
- BTTS is -107, which looks a fair reflection of the likelihood of both teams scoring given Posh’s leaky defence and Lincoln’s attacking form.
- Back the away team here because Skubala has turned them into a solid and progressive side that will not be fazed by the atmosphere at Weston Homes.
- A 1-1 correct-score looks probable given the set-piece threat and Peterborough’s occasional wide danger.
