For our Exeter vs. Lincoln prediction, we're going for a 1-1 draw.
We have a mid-table clash in League One this weekend as Exeter City host Lincoln City on Saturday afternoon.
Exeter City currently sit 12th in League One with eleven wins, ten draws and thirteen losses from thirty-four games this season.
Exeter have had a commendable season in League One following promotion from League Two last year as they find themselves on course for a solid mid-table finish.
They do enter this game amidst a fairly poor run of form, though, having won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five matches in all competitions.
However, their most recent game saw them claim a very valuable point away at play-off chasing Wycombe Wanderers in a 1-1 draw, a result that meant Exeter have now taken four points from their last two matches.
Their form at home has been nothing to shout about in recent weeks having won one, drawn three and lost one of their last five matches on home soil.
Exeter are just cruising to the end of the season at this point and have barely anything to play for as they sit well clear of the relegation zone and well shy of the play-off spots. Given their circumstance it makes their games tough to call, and while they should avoid defeat here Lincoln are a tricky side to face.
Lincoln City currently sit 11th in the Championship with nine wins, eighteen draws and seven losses from thirty-four games this season.
The Imps have had a fairly frustrating campaign this year in that having only fallen to defeat seven times, the 4th fewest defeats in the league, they've loitered harmlessly in mid-table the majority of the campaign having drawn an excessive number of games.
They enter this game amidst a typical run of form by their standards having won one and drawn four of their last five matches in the league, the most recent of which was a 0-0 draw against Cheltenham Town.
Their away form reads identically having won one and drawn four of their last five matches on home soil.
These two sides drew 1-1 when they met in the league on the opening day of the season and it wouldn't be unwise to bet on the same scoreline here.
The record for the most draws in an English Football League season is 23, and with just 12 games remaining Lincoln need six more draws to break the record. It might not be one they want, but there seems a good chance they'll get it. They may very well chalk another one down here.
