The numbers
Lincoln City is currently leading League One, while AFC Wimbledon finds itself in 14th place. The upcoming match on April 3, 2026, at LNER Stadium is crucial for both teams, particularly for Wimbledon, who have struggled in recent outings.
Wimbledon has played 20 away games this season, managing to keep a clean sheet in only two of them. This defensive vulnerability is highlighted by the fact that 21% of the goals they have conceded occurred within the first 15 minutes of matches. In contrast, Lincoln City has scored the opening goal in 28 of their 39 matches this season, showcasing their strong start in games.
Recent form indicates that Wimbledon has lost three of their last four matches, contributing to their mid-table position. They have scored just three goals in those four matches while conceding 18 goals in their last eight. Marcus Browne, who is AFC Wimbledon’s top league scorer with 12 goals, will be pivotal for the Dons if they hope to turn their fortunes around.
Lincoln City, on the other hand, is enjoying a strong home record, having won four consecutive home games in League One. Their last home match saw them score four goals against Rotherham United, further solidifying their attacking prowess. However, they will be without Adam Reach for the remainder of the season due to injury, which could impact their offensive strategy.
The last meeting between these teams ended in a 2-0 victory for AFC Wimbledon, a result that Lincoln City will be eager to avenge. The predicted scoreline for the upcoming match is Lincoln 2–0 Wimbledon, reflecting the current form and standings of both teams.
Betting odds suggest Lincoln City is favored, with odds of 1.91 for Lincoln -1.25 on the Asian Handicap. This line has been covered by Lincoln in their last four consecutive home games, indicating a strong home advantage.
As the match approaches, observers are keen to see if Lincoln can maintain their winning streak at home and if Wimbledon can find a way to improve their away form. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any last-minute changes in player availability or tactical adjustments.
