If you play away from home and score 3 goals, then you're expect a point at the very least wouldn't you whereas if you're a home team and you're 2-0 up, you'd also expect to get at least a point. Those have been the scenarios in the Imps' last two visits to Barnet, 3-0 up 6 years ago and lost 4-3 and last season, 2-0 down but won 3-2, you certainly can't say that games as Underhill are boring but City will be hoping to avoid any drama to go top of the table.

Although a lot depends on what happens in the Walsall vs Wycombe game, City will guaranteed move to at least 2nd spot with a win and if Wycombe become the first side to not only score, but to also win at Walsall this season, then all City have to do is win by a bigger margin to go top. Easy on paper but we all know what City are like in the situations.

Last week's win against Hartlepool has hopefully calmed the ship after 2 shocking defeats to teams that were occupying 23rd at the time. Even if City don't go top, a win would definately be very helpful just 2 weeks before we head into our most difficult game of the season, away at Swindon. 

Morgan is still likely to be out injured meaning that City should stay with the 4-4-2 formation that beat Hartlepool last week. It should in theory be the same team that played against Hartlepool.
