Crewe Alex. play host to Lincoln City at The Alexandra Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Railwaymen are clearly on top, winning 51.06% of the games played between the two.
The last time the two teams met at Crewe Alex. was well over fifteen years ago, back in October 1993, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides
Crewe Alexandra's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While The Railwaymen have scored 9, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.
Lincoln City's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. A generous 8 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Crewe Alex. see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 25 points from their 19 games played so far, Lincoln City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 18 points from 19 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Crewe Alex. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the The Railwaymen will at least gain a draw. Score draw
