Dec 7th features a match where Crewe Alexandra will host Lincoln City in a clash of these two mismatched League One teams. The game day is forecasted to be a windy and cold day, and temperatures reaching a maximum of only 2 degrees, which will make playing unpleasant. 24th placed Crewe Alexandra is fresh off their 1-2 loss against Ipswich Town. Luke Offord scored the first goal for Ipswich Town on an own goal in the 3rd minute, then Bersant Celina added another in the 5th minute of the first half’s stoppage time on a feed from George Edmundson. Crewe Alexandra looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 5 points in their last 10 matches, while 18th placed Lincoln City is fresh off their 0-1 loss against Accrington Stanley. Colby Bishop struck first for Accrington Stanley in the 55th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Lincoln City was frustrated by Accrington Stanley’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Accrington Stanley ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Lincoln City won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
