Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Our calculations suggest that there's minimal chance that this fixture will serve up more than 3 goals at most, and the odds and statistics align with KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. Mansfield and Lincoln have seldom been involved in thrillers of late, whether that be in League One individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a strong favourite draw or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.29.
