Lincoln Preview
By: Richard Lord
Date: 15/05/2006
SATURDAY'S win at Sincil Bank has made Grimsby Town many pundits' favourites to progress into the League 2 play-off final at the Millennium Stadium, but they still have to face a Lincoln side determined to overcome the 1-0 deficit and make their fourth consecutive play-off attempt a successful one.

It's been well documented that this will be the 100th meeting between the two sides, although several different sources don't take into account meetings beyond the league and two major cup competitions. Grimsby hold the advantage over their near neighbours, with 35 league wins to the Imps' 25. P 98 W 44 D 25 L 29 F 189 A 143 Lincoln Head-to-Head (15th on The Opposition Ladder)

You'd need to have a very short memory (or a selective one) in order to forget what happened the last time these two sides met. Gary Jones' 22nd minute strike is all that separates the teams - and as we have seen with Preston, a good away result in a play-off semi-final doesn't always guarantee you a passage to Cardiff. Grimsby Team: Mildenhall, McDermott (Croft 18), Newey, Whittle, Futcher, Cohen (Reddy 68), Parkinson, Bolland, Woodhouse, Gary Jones, Mendes (Toner 78) Subs (not used): Kalala, Goodfellow
Lincoln Team: Marriott, McAuley, Morgan, McCombe, Beevers (Frecklington 60), Hughes, Kerr, Brown, Robinson (Birch 76), Forrester, Green (Yeo 60).
