Chelsea Too Hot to Handle at Sincil Bank?

Lincoln are riding high in third place in the League One table after nine games. They have been excellent so far, picking up five wins and suffering just one defeat. Last weekend, City beat Luton Town 3-1 at Sincil Bank.

Lincoln have claimed two away wins in the EFL Cup. In round one, Jack Moylan, Freddie Draper, and Rob Street were on target in a 3-1 win at Harrogate Town. Ben House then scored late to give the Imps a 1-0 victory at Burton Albion in the second round.

Chelsea have had a tough week, losing at Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League before suffering a 2-1 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford in the Premier League. Enzo Maresca’s men are winless in three (one draw, two defeats) and looking to get back to winning ways.

Chelsea have a superb history in this competition, having lifted the trophy five times. They are the fourth most successful club and the best London performers in the EFL Cup.

Lincoln City vs Chelsea Betting Odds

As expected, the third-tier team are the big underdogs in this one. They have been outstanding in League One, but facing one of the Premier League’s top dogs in the cup will be an arduous task. The home win is priced at 15.00.

Chelsea are the massive favourites at Sincil Bank, and Maresca will want to see his side go through unscathed. You can get 1.15 for the away win in normal time, while the draw is available at 7.60.

Lincoln City vs Chelsea Betting Tips & Predictions

Lincoln are a tough team to play against on their own patch, but Chelsea’s qualities should shine through. We are backing the visitors to be winning at half time and full time (1.53).

Chelsea have won without conceding in just one of their opening six league and cup games this season. Maresca will want a clean sheet here, and there is good value in 1.75 for the away win to nil.
