Match preview

Sheffield United are favourites at home to Lincoln with a 45% chance of winning, but it's far from certain: Lincoln have a 24% chance and a draw is 30%.

This could be a tight, low-scoring match: around 2.1 expected goals (Sheffield United 1.2, Lincoln 0.8) and only a 34% chance of three or more goals.

At least one side keeping a clean sheet is the more likely outcome, with both teams scoring at 41%. The single most likely score is 1-0, although with so many possible scorelines, no individual result is likely on its own.
