Our young Gunners are set to play their penultimate pre-season match against League One side Lincoln City on Saturday, August 3. The game will kick off at 3 PM (UK time) at the LNER Stadium.

Our under-21s will be aiming to return to winning ways after a 3-1 loss to Bishop’s Stortford on Wednesday night.

Opponent Spotlight: Lincoln City

Lincoln City had a commendable season last year, finishing seventh in League One. They narrowly missed out on the play-offs, losing the sixth spot on the final day of the 2023/24 regular season.

Their pre-season campaign has been strong so far, remaining unbeaten in their three games. They recently defeated Harrogate Town 4-0 last Saturday. Prior to that, they secured a 1-0 victory over Championship side Preston and drew 0-0 with Oldham Athletic.

This will be Lincoln’s final pre-season game before they kick off their 2024/25 League One campaign away at Burton Albion on Saturday, August 10.
