Barrow vs Lincoln City Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

Lincoln might be flying high after their heroics in the FA Cup and they are of course top of the tree in the National League, but on Tuesday night they face a tough trip to face a Barrow side who got the better of them earlier on in the season. The hosts might not be in great form right now, but they shouldn’t be underestimated and remain one of the National league’s best teams when playing on home soil.

Having played 13 times at Holker Street this season, Barrow have lost just one match and have proved to be a tough nut to crack. With this in mind, they’re fancied to get a positive result against a Lincoln side who may well be prioritising their upcoming FA Cup fixture.

With just eight goals against this season, Barrow boast the best defensive record at home in National League. If they can keep things tight – something they often achieve, it would be no surprise if they were capable of catching out this Lincoln side at the other end, especially considering the opposition are highly likely to have one eye on their FA Cup tie against Brighton.

Lincoln might be leading the way in the National League, but they’ve done a lot of their good work at home. They’ve certainly not been poor on the road, but have conceded with regularity and are certainly not unbeatable. Having conceded 15 goals, the visitors have kept just one clean sheet away from home this season.

This match looks as though it’s come at just the right time for a Barrow team who’re very good on their own patch. It’s almost impossible to think Lincoln won’t have their eyes on what could be another cup upset on Saturday and Barrow can take advantage.
