Lincoln City are ready to welcome Shrewsbury Town to Sincil Bank Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning just 3 of the 14 games played, and losing 8.
The previous match played between the two at Sincil Bank Stadium was within the last three years, in January 2003, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division Three match.
