Betfair are giving football punters the chance to Bet £10 and Get £10 on accas and bet builders until the end of March so, with League 1 and 2 action on Tuesday, I've recommend three tips for each which you can back as trebles.
if Lincoln continue to be offered at a decent price we continue to stick with Michael Skubala's men rather than go elsewhere for some betting entropy.
The Imps delivered for the Saturday column with a 3-1 triumph over a good Stockport outfit, although they were far from their best, Stockport fans felt they deserved more and some of the Lincoln massive thought it was one of their worst performances of the season.
Lincoln are happy without the ball, are ultra-organised and have proven themselves to be the best counter-attacking side in the league.
Huddersfield are unbeaten across their last 11 home league games (W7 D4), scoring 2.1 goals on average per fixture across that time, but the last three matches present the problem with just two goals and they failed to score against Port Vale on Saturday.
We're going with the "big two" in the division and Cardiff, while playing a totally different style to Lincoln, have been one of the best teams by a long shot this season.
They've won 14 at home and scored 42 goals and got back to their best on Saturday with a 0-4 win at Exeter. They created a massive 3.60 xG with 10 chances and double the accurate passes.
Wycombe let me down for a treble, surrendering, to Luton which means back‑to‑back league defeats for Wanderers for the first time since August.
I opposed Stockport on Saturday at Lincoln, but there's relief in the shape of Northampton coming to town, a side with a pitiful record away from home and Colin Calderwood has made the short-term move from upstairs to downstairs in place of Kevin Nolan.
Northampton are winless in 10 away league games (D3 L7), last going longer without victory on their travels in May 2021 (17) and are readily opposable. The hosts to win is short enough at 1/2 and I would be pretty disappointed if they were not good for at least two goals against a side with an xA of a whopping 1.78.
Walsall have lost each of their last four home league games, as many as their first 14 of 2025-26 (W7 D3). They last lost five on the bounce in the Football League at home in February 1989 in the second tier (a run of eight). Their early season top-of-the-table form has disappeared, although they did manage a 0-3 win at Crewe on Saturday.
Cambridge won on their last trip to Walsall in October 2020 (2-0) after failing to win on any of their previous five visits (D1 L4). Only Bromley (24) have picked up more away points in League Two since the start of November than Cambridge (22 - W6 D4 L1) and Neil Harris' side are in great shape with a 5-0 win against Gillingham featuring five different scorers.
How can you fancy a side after a 5-0 mauling? Gillingham's dreadful season reached new depths on Saturday and, with just one victory since 14 February, they seem in a downward spiral.
Gareth Ainsworth said after Saturday's loss: "The injuries is one thing but you've got to stand up to set pieces, you've got to fight, got to scrap. There's some players in there that came in after me and I've got to take responsibility."
The Gills have lost three of their last five home league games (W1 D1), as many as in their previous 22 prior (W9 D10 L3) and it might be worth taking a punt on Swindon.
When Rovers manager Steve Evans highlighted the fixtures from which his team should expect to take points, their trip to Bromley on Saturday, the League Two leaders, wouldn't have been one.
Rovers went down to a 1-0 loss at Hayes Lane (finally, I got Bromley right) and there wasn't much in the game. Rovers improved greatly in the second-half and were much better on the ball, and that attacking threat swings me to the hosts here.
Under Evans, their home form is excellent with four wins from five against Walsall, Grimsby, Crewe and Newport.
Shrewsbury have only won two of their last 24 Football League away games against Bristol Rovers (D8 L14), winning 2-1 in February 2018 and 1-0 in February 2020.
