History of the Lincoln City v Brentford fixture

Brentford travel to take on Lincoln City at Sincil Bank Stadium on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having taken no points from 15 of the 21 contests.

The last time the two teams met at Lincoln City was amazingly over twenty years ago, in September 1985, with Lincoln City running out comfortable 3 - 0 winners in a Third Division match.
