Birmingham vs Lincoln City Prediction & Betting Tips - League One
by Joseph King in League One Predictions
League One leaders Birmingham seek to extend their lead atop the standings when they host 12th-place Lincoln City on Saturday. The Blues have opened up a nine-point lead over second place Wycombe, while the Imps are firmly planted in mid-table with their total of 46 points. Here's our match prediction!
Birmingham will look to bounce back following a 3-1 away loss to Bolton in the team’s last outing on Tuesday. The defeat saw the hosts’ lengthy 18-match League One unbeaten run come to an end and marked their first loss in the last six across all competitions.
The hosts have a good shot at getting right back into the win column on Saturday as they have been simply scintillating at St. Andrew’s during this campaign. Birmingham have amassed an unbeaten 14-3-0 home record in the league, smashing in 30 goals while conceding only seven.
Lincoln City have zero room for error if they are to make a late push for the promotion playoff spots. They just missed out last season with a seventh-place finish and find themselves 12 points behind sixth-place Huddersfield currently.
The Imps put an end to a two-match losing streak on Tuesday after a 4-1 home victory over Crawley Town. It was an impressive performance, although it marked only the team’s second win in their last eight outings.

Our Birmingham vs Lincoln City Prediction
Birmingham possess the best defense in the division with only 22 goals allowed in 33 league appearances so far. After giving up three goals on the road in their last outing, we’re expecting a much-improved defensive performance by the league leaders on their home turf.
Lincoln City have been finding the net with some consistency lately, but they will be up against a different beast on Saturday. A 1-0 or 2-0 home victory are the most likely outcomes. Our Birmingham vs Lincoln City prediction: under 2.5.
