West Ham United will travel to Lincoln City, with their focus set on returning to the Championship top two. Two winless outings have seen West Ham drop four points below the league leaders while Lincoln’s dip leaves them just four above the relegation zone. West Ham won the only other meeting with Lincoln, and our prediction backs them to make it two.
After scoring in consecutive matches, Lincoln City were shut out again last time out. They are coming here off a 3-0 defeat to Sheffield United, and the Red Imps are left with only seven goals in nine matches.
Theirs is the joint lowest goal tally, and the aforementioned defeat was their second straight, while they’ve already been beaten five times this season.
West Ham United haven’t fully recovered from their elimination from the League Cup. After the 3-2 home defeat to Fulham, they’ve posted back-to-back draws; 2-2 against Millwall and 1-1 with QPR.
Before their rhythm was interrupted, West Ham had scored 3+ in four straight matches, and they have reason to believe they can return there. For a side seeking a straight return to the Premier League, this will be considered a winnable game.
The last time the two teams faced off was in the League Cup in 2023, and West Ham won 1-0.

Our Lincoln City vs West Ham Prediction
Both West Ham United and Lincoln City will be looking to return to winning ways. West Ham are seeking to end a three-game winless streak, while Lincoln have suffered straight defeats in their last two games.
There is a possibility Lincoln’s suffering will continue as they are still searching for their first win at home. They meet a West Ham side that has yet to lose on the road, and yet the hosts are the joint lowest scorers. Like it was in the teams’ only previous meeting, the Imps may fail to score here. Our prediction for Lincoln City v West Ham United is for West Ham to win to nil.
