The Imps host SkyBet League One leaders Rotherham United at LNER Stadium this evening.

The reverse fixture saw City run out 2-0 winners at AESSEAL New York Stadium on the second matchday of the season. A Shaun MacDonald own goal and Harry Anderson second-half header ensured the Imps took maximum points from their first two games of the SkyBet League One campaign.

Manager’s Comments

Millers manager Paul Warne is looking forward to this one following their win at home to Burton: “I like night games. Unfortunately last time we went to Lincoln we got tucked up a treat so I’m hoping for a better performance.

“They’ve had a new manager in there for a while now, but they signed a few last month. The way he wants to play takes a little bit of time, but they’ve had some good results. I think their home atmosphere is really good and their fans will be right behind their team.

“We’re taking a good following as well, so I’m expecting a real humdinger of a game. Both teams play similar shapes so it should be a game that goes to the final whistle.”
