Lincoln v Stevenage

Sky Bet League Two leaders Lincoln are three points clear and could improve their chances of the title by beating Stevenage at Sincil Bank.

The Imps have stuttered with five draws in their last seven league games, although they have picked up three red cards in that time which has not helped, and they are still unbeaten in the period.

City have good defensive strength with Cian Bolger alongside Jason Shackell and they are one of the few teams capable of standing up to the physical threat posed by Stevenage.

Boro are ninth despite being seen as one of the worst teams in the division on shot metrics and they were trounced by Tranmere even before two late red cards in last week's 2-0 loss to Rovers.

It was 14-2 to Tranmere on the shot count (7-0 on target) and the dismissal of Ben Nugent robs Stevenage of a key defender.

Forest Green v Yeovil

Forest Green's three matches without a win does not tell the whole story for Rovers, who can bounce back against Yeovil in League Two.

Mark Cooper's side dominated their 1-1 draw with Mansfield and were then unfortunate to run into two potentially massive improvers in Notts County and Swindon, so this could represent a much better chance of returning to winning ways.

Yeovil have won just two of their last 17 matches, with 12 defeats in that period, and the beauty of the handicap bet is Darren Way's Glovers can put in some stinkers, as shown by a 3-1 loss to Grimsby and a 4-1 defeat at Oldham in the last seven days.

Recommendation
Forest Green -0.75 on Asian handicap
1pt 9-10 188Bet
