We said: Cambridge United 1-2 Lincoln City

 It has been a tough start to the season for Cambridge and we do not expect that to change on Saturday when Lincoln visit, but their last three defeats have only been by one goal, so this could be a tougher assignment for Lincoln than it initially appears on paper. Read more.
