Lincoln Preview

Both sides are at the top of the table but Hartlepool are going into the game with much better form. Danny Wilson will be making sure that the curse of manager of the month is not an issue as Pools aim to make it 4 straight wins. (The best since Neale Cooper was manager)

Both sides are in the playoffs but the sides have very different form going into tonights game. Licoln City have lost their last 2 games whilst Pools have won their last 3 quite convinceingly.

A win tonight is not enough to left Poos up the league but it would bring us within 2 points (depending on other results) of the teams above us.

Pools last visit to Sincil Bank was during the 2003 promotion season when Mike Newells men were beaten 3-0. The last time the two clubs met was in the first round if the 2005 FA Cup when Neale Coopers team won 3-0.

Licoln have 2 players out and so do Pools but Gary Liddle and Jon Daly are both expected to be in the side after both went off injured against Wrexham and Micky Barron returns to contention after missing the Wrexham game with illness.
