Burton Albion host Lincoln City in the EFL Cup on 26 August 2025. Burton Albion sit 60th on 1 points and Lincoln City are 16th on 6. Burton Albion have won 0 of their last 1 (D), while Lincoln City have won 1 of 1 (W). There is no recent head-to-head record between these sides in our data. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.

Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
