    club badges bannerOpta

    For the first time in 65 years Lincoln will play in the second tier of English football on Saturday (15:00 BST) as they begin their campaign at beaten play-off finalists Middlesbrough.

    The Imps won at Derby in the EFL Cup first round last weekend and lost just once in the past 15 seasons on the opening day.

    Boro overcame Wrexham in the EFL Cup and have lost only one of their past five curtain-raisers.

    • This is the first meeting between Middlesbrough and Lincoln City in any competition since April 1961, with the Imps winning a second tier match 5-2 at Sincil Bank.

    • Lincoln City have won just one of their 10 previous Football League visits to Middlesbrough (D3 L6); a 2-1 victory in March 1959 in the second tier under Bill Anderson.

    • Following a run of 10 wins in 14 games between November and February (D1 L3), Middlesbrough won just four of their final 15 league matches to end last season (D7 L4).

    • Lincoln City finished their EFL League One title-winning campaign with a 29-game unbeaten run (W23 D6); only six sides previously have gone 30+ games outside of the top-flight, the last being Burnley in 2024-25 (33).

    • Middlesbrough recorded more pressed sequences than any other side in the EFL Championship last season (592), while only Ipswich Town (11) and Hull City (9) scored more goals following high turnovers than their eight.

  18. A white Volkswagen Polo which has been badly damaged at the front on the left. The driver's door is also warped. The bonnet is covered in dirt. There is an officer dressed in black leaning into the back window and a police officer in a hi-vis yellow vest looking at the bonnet while standing the other side of the car. There are two other officers standing behind the car. There is a silver car parked on the side of the road to the right and two people walking down the path behind it. There are red brick buildings lining the street with a colourful shop on the corner on the left.

  19. A river is curving its way through fields with pylons in the distance. Weeds are growing along the near bank. There are trees in the distance behind the pylons.

  20. Baths Bridge which is a curved concrete path with green metal railings on both sides. There are silver temporary barriers lining the bridge in front of the railings and two large signs at the beginning of the bridge. The one on the left is red and reads 'Cyclists dismount', while the one on the right is yellow and reads: 'Weak bridge please give way to oncoming pedestrians and maintain social distancing regulations. Cyclists must dismount'. They have both been defaced with graffiti. There are white broken up lines signalling cycle lanes on either side of the bridge. Over the bridge there are lots of green trees.

  21. Hury reservoir. The water levels appear to be low. There is a person in orange hi-vis clothes standing at the corner - they look very small. Behind and to the right is a construction vehicle and a van next to scaffolding.

  22. A wide aerial view of a large energy storage facility containing hundreds of white, container-sized battery units arranged in neat rows on a gravel site.
