Lincoln City is on the brink of promotion in the English Football League. On April 3, 2026, they faced AFC Wimbledon at LNER Stadium, securing a vital 1-0 victory. The match saw Ryan One score the winning goal in the 88th minute, ensuring that Lincoln City extended their unbeaten run to 23 matches.

This win places Lincoln City in a strong position, as they now need just one more point from their remaining six matches to confirm their promotion. Their current performance has been impressive, with a superior goal difference compared to their closest competitors.

In their previous match, Lincoln City had also performed well, winning 3-0 against Rotherham United. This consistency highlights their strong form as they approach the end of the season.

AFC Wimbledon, on the other hand, has struggled recently, suffering defeats in back-to-back League One away games. Their last encounter with Lincoln City ended unfavorably, with Wimbledon losing 2-0.

As the season progresses, observers are keenly watching Lincoln City’s performance, anticipating their next steps in the promotion race. With only a few matches left, the pressure is mounting, but their current form suggests they are well-equipped to secure the necessary points.

Officials and fans alike are hopeful that Lincoln City will maintain their momentum and achieve their goal of promotion to a higher division.
