Lincoln City Chelsea betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this clash is the occurrence of several goals. Although a Chelsea side with more possession and initiative is expected, the truth is that the team has shown defensive weaknesses that the opposition can exploit. Everything indicates, therefore, that we will have an open game, with opportunities for both sides and goals to enliven the spectacle.

Preview
Lincoln City hosts Chelsea at the LNER Stadium in Lincoln, in a game for the 3rd round of the EFL Cup 2025/2026. This is an unprecedented clash, as there are no records of previous meetings between these two clubs.
 

Analysis Lincoln

Lincoln City comes into this game following a 3-1 victory over Luton in a League One match. It is worth noting that the home side reaches this stage of the EFL Cup after eliminating Burton in the previous round. The home team usually lines up in a 4-4-2, with the two most advanced players being James Collins and Freddie Draper. The brains of the visiting side is midfielder Tom Bayliss, responsible for organising the game and linking the midfield with the attack. When advancing in the offensive process, he normally does so down the right flank, taking advantage of the depth provided by full-back Tendayi Darikwa. All players are available for this game.
 

Confirmed Lineup: Zach Jeacock, Sonny Bradley, Tendayi Darikwa , Lewis Montsma, Tom Hamer, Ryley Towler, Ivan Varfolomeev, Conor McGrandles, Freddie Draper, Robert Street, Ben House.
Coach: M. Kennedy.

Analysis Chelsea

Chelsea comes into this game following a 2-1 defeat on their trip to Manchester United in a Premier League match. The Londoners usually line up in a 4-3-3 system, favouring a more offensive style of play, attacking through the wide areas. It is worth noting that, in this formation, the three players responsible for causing panic in the opposition defence should be Pedro Neto, Estêvão, and João Pedro. When moving into the offensive process, they normally try to channel their attack down the right side, making it easier to take advantage of the depth provided by full-back Reece James. Missing from this game are Benoît Badiashile, Roméo Lavia, Liam Delap, and Levi Colwill, all injured.
 

Confirmed Lineup: Filip Jørgensen, Trevoh Chalobah, Jorrel Hato, Wesley Fofana, Malo Gusto, Facundo Buonanotte, Andrey Santos, Enzo Fernández , Alejandro Garnacho, Tyrique George, Jamie Gittens.
Coach: E. Maresca.
