​Lincoln vs Derby: Top free betting tips

Our Lincoln vs Derby prediction is for yet another win for the Rams. Can the Imps find a way to stop their free fall? 

The Imps lost touch with the top 6 after earning a single point from their last 5 league matches. Lincoln continue to struggle in attack but also they had been very poor defending set pieces in recent matches. Derby on the other hand are one of the main contenders for direct promotion and they won 8 of their last 10 league games (D1 L1). 

Half with the most goals prediction: Second

Our first Lincoln vs Derby prediction is that the majority of the goals in this match will be scored in the second half. Both sides have been scoring most of their goals so far after the interval. For Derby, this figure stands at 62% of their league goals – 31 out of 50. Lincoln have scored 56.6%, or 17 of 30, of their goals in the second half. 

​​​Correct outcome prediction: Derby to win

Our next Lincoln vs Derby prediction backs the Rams to continue their excellent form with another win. Derby have been in a sensational run over the last 12 rounds – W10 D1 L1. 

At the same time, Lincoln’s last 5 results in the league show a sharp decline – D1 L4. 

​​​Correct score prediction: 2-1 to Derby

With our final Lincoln vs Derby prediction we back the Rams to secure a 2-1 triumph. On all their dominance in the last few months, Derby achieved 3 of their last 4 wins by single-goal margins. 

We combine that stat with the fact that 2 of Lincoln’s last 3 home defeats were 1-2 losses and that’s why we like this scoreline.
