City’s Sky Bet Championship fixture at Bristol City has been moved back by one week following the Carabao Cup third round draw.
The Imps were due to travel to Ashton Gate on Tuesday 8 September, but the fixture will now take place on Tuesday 15 September, with kick-off at 7.45pm.
The change follows City being drawn away to AFC Bournemouth in the third round of the Carabao Cup, with ties scheduled to be played during the week commencing Monday 7 September.
The EFL is expected to confirm the date and kick-off time for the trip to Bournemouth shortly, with the full third-round schedule being finalised alongside broadcast selections due to considerations around clubs involved in European competition.
Further details regarding both fixtures, including ticket information, will be communicated in due course.
