Lincoln are the 2nd-biggest foulers in the Championship so far this season, giving away 13.78 per match, and Jefferies should find duels with West Ham’s best two players for winning fouls.

Manor Solomon, 2.04 fouls won per 90, and Morato, 1.77 (3.81 per 90 as a duo), could start down West Ham’s left.

Jefferies is at 1.10 fouls per 90 for the season, and was at 1.29 and 1.17 in the previous two seasons in League One, he’s also fouled in five of his last six games for Lincoln.

That includes making two, three including Super Sub, in Saturday’s 3-0 defeat at Sheffield United.

His two fouls were on United’s left back and striker.

Mavropanos does have a tendency to try and buy fouls, and that shouldn’t be too difficult to achieve when up against Freddie Draper, who has committed 5.22 fouls per 90 in the league this season.

He’s fouled in 8/8 starts, four of those games have come at home, he’s fouled three, four, five and six times respectively across those outings.

Mavropanos has won a foul in five of his last six Championship appearances, and will be involved in the physical tussle with Draper.

Nuno Espirito Santo will have one eye on Saturday’s trip to 1st-placed, going into the midweek slate, Swansea City.

Therefore, winning fouls could be crucial to seeing out a win at Lincoln if they have a lead to hold onto in the second period especially.

This bet has won in 9/9 Championship appearances for Bowen this season, and he had six shots in Friday night’s draw against QPR.

Personnel could be hard to call as Espirito Santo factors the Swansea trip this Saturday into his selection, but captain Bowen is very unlikely to make way.

Lincoln have conceded the 9th-most shots per game in the division, and though they’ll have a plan for Bowen, so have each of the first nine teams he’s faced this season and he’s still been able to let fly three times or more every time.

The Hammers have had an extra day to recover for this game than Lincoln, and that could be evident if Lincoln struggle to live with the intensity of their newly-relegated visitors.

Lincoln are not a bad attacking team at this level, forget their recent history, they’ve been trending as a mid table side going forward so far this season.

In three of their four home games so far, they’ve had four shots on target or more, in two of those they had five.

Mads Hermansen has made 2.33 saves per 90 in the league this season, landing this bet in every away game and actually making four saves in three of four league away trips.

This is a massive occasion for Lincoln, maybe the glamour tie of the season, the closest comparison would be hosting Southampton in early September - they had five shots on target in that one.

This bet has landed in 8/9 Championship games so far this season, seven times by Reach himself and once with the help of Super Sub.

Reach is the go-to free kick taker for Lincoln, who’ve won 10.89 fouls per match so far this season, but eight of his 11 shots have come outside of free kicks anyway.

The 33-year-old is a very intelligent player who has played in a variety of roles in his career, left wing back currently, and that allows him to find pockets of space vacated by Lincoln’s very physical front three when attacking.

His three shots from free kicks have come from the right side of the pitch, where Morato, 1.42 fouls per 90, may be operating.
