This weekend sees the 19th Football League meeting between The Imps and The Chairboys, although of course we did meet in non league football too, so we take a look back at some of the memorable clashes between the two sides from the past 30 years.
WYCOMBE 2-2 LINCOLN – 2017/18
The Imps earned a point on their return to the Football League away at Wycombe Wanderers in 2017.
Matt Green opened the scoring at Adams Park in the 31st minute as Nathan Arnold provided an assist by squaring the ball in the penalty area for Green to tap in.
Wycombe were quick to reply, equalising six minutes later through talented midfielder Luke O’Nien who got on the end of Joe Jacobson’s free-kick.
O’Nien went on to score eight goals in the 2017/18 SkyBet League Two campaign as Wycombe won promotion under former Imps man Gareth Ainsworth.
Jacobson was involved again as Wanderers took the lead through a 25-yard free-kick from the former Wales U21 international. However, Josh Ginnelly scored the equalising goal for Lincoln four minutes into the second half after getting on the end of Alex Woodyard’s through ball to earn the Imps a point.
