Head coach John Eustace has had the squad back in pre-season training since early July, though the long-term absence of striker Patrick Agyemang until Christmas leaves a gap up front. The Rams are reportedly pursuing attacking reinforcements, with Manchester City forward Divin Mubama among their targets.<\/p><p>Lincoln City arrive riding a wave of historic momentum, having secured promotion to the Championship for the first time since 1960-61. Manager Chris Cohen has carefully structured pre-season to give every player a full 90 minutes across two friendlies ahead of this tie. New signing Andrei Coubi&#537; awaits international clearance, while winter recruit Josh Honohan will not be rushed back after nine months out injured, leaving Cohen with limited options in certain positions.<\/p><div id=\"mux-recommended-bets\" class=\"mux-widget\">\n    <div class=\"mux-sc-header\"><h3>Recommended Bets<\/h3><\/div>\n    <table class=\"mux-sc-table\">\n        <thead><tr><th><\/th><th>1xBet<\/th><th>Stake<\/th><th>bc.game<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n        <tbody><tr><td><strong>Derby County to win<\/strong><\/td><td><span class=\"mux-sc-odd-best\"><a class=\"mux-odd mux-odd--link trk-cta-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.toffeeweb.com\/int\/go-1xbet-prono-in-en\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" data-m=\"x_derby-county_lincoln-city_19726954\" data-b=\"1xbet.com\" data-t=\"home\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>2.01<\/a><\/span><\/td><td><span class=\"mux-sc-odd\"><span class=\"mux-odd\" data-m=\"x_derby-county_lincoln-city_19726954\" data-b=\"stake.bet.br\" data-t=\"home\">1.98<\/span><\/span><\/td><td><span class=\"mux-sc-odd\"><span class=\"mux-odd\" data-m=\"x_derby-county_lincoln-city_19726954\" data-b=\"bc.game\" data-t=\"home\">1.99<\/span><\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>BTTS Yes<\/strong><\/td><td><span class=\"mux-sc-odd-best\"><a class=\"mux-odd mux-odd--link trk-cta-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.toffeeweb.com\/int\/go-1xbet-prono-in-en\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" data-m=\"x_derby-county_lincoln-city_19726954\" data-b=\"1xbet.com\" data-t=\"btts_yes\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>1.59<\/a><\/span><\/td><td><span class=\"mux-sc-odd\"><span class=\"mux-odd mux-odd--na\">&middot;<\/span><\/span><\/td><td><span class=\"mux-sc-odd-best\"><span class=\"mux-odd\" data-m=\"x_derby-county_lincoln-city_19726954\" data-b=\"bc.game\" data-t=\"btts_yes\">1.59<\/span><\/span><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody>\n    <\/table>\n    <p class=\"mux-odds-timestamp\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"11\" height=\"11\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><circle cx=\"12\" cy=\"12\" r=\"10\"><\/circle><polyline points=\"12 6 12 12 16 14\"><\/polyline><\/svg> Odds recorded on 07 Aug 2026 at 18:01 &middot; Odds are subject to change<\/p>\n<\/div><p>Derby County's home advantage at Pride Park Stadium is the cornerstone of this selection.

The hosts also face attacking challenges with Patrick Agyemang sidelined until Christmas, which could limit goalscoring output and keep this tight. Under 2.5 goals at 2.08 merits consideration as a secondary pick, given both sides may lack fluency in their first competitive outing of the season. Early-round cup ties between Championship sides often produce cagey, low-scoring affairs.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trends to Know about Derby County vs Lincoln City<\/h2><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Derby lead head-to-head record two wins to one<\/li><li>Derby hold home ground advantage here<\/li><li>Lincoln missing key signings through unavailability<\/li><\/ul><div id=\"mux-ctx\">\n    <h3 class=\"mux-ctx-title\">Form &amp; Statistics: Derby County vs Lincoln City<\/h3>\n    <div class=\"mux-ctx-card\">\n        <div class=\"mux-ctx-columns\"><div class=\"mux-ctx-col\">\n                <h4 class=\"mux-ctx-team-name\">Derby County<\/h4>\n                \n                <p class=\"mux-ctx-stats-title\">Season statistics<\/p>\n                <div class=\"mux-ctx-stats-grid\">\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">2.4<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Total goals<\/span><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">60%<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Both teams score<\/span><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">1.4<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Goals scored<\/span><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">1<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Goals conceded<\/span><\/div>\n                    \n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"mux-ctx-col\">\n                <h4 class=\"mux-ctx-team-name\">Lincoln City<\/h4>\n                \n                <p class=\"mux-ctx-stats-title\">Season statistics<\/p>\n                <div class=\"mux-ctx-stats-grid\">\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">2.6<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Total goals<\/span><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">20%<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Both teams score<\/span><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">1.2<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Goals scored<\/span><\/div>\n                    <div class=\"mux-ctx-stat\"><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-value\">1.4<\/span><span class=\"mux-ctx-stat-label\">Goals conceded<\/span><\/div>\n                    \n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div><div id=\"mux-stats-h2h\" class=\"mux-widget\">\n    <table class=\"mux-sh2h-table\">\n        <thead><tr><th class=\"mux-sh2h-label-th\">Statistic<\/th><th class=\"mux-sh2h-home-th\">Derby County<\/th><th><\/th><th class=\"mux-sh2h-away-th\">Lincoln City<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n        <tbody><tr><td class=\"mux-sh2h-label\">Last 5 results<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-home\">&middot;<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-sep\">&middot;<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-away\">&middot;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"mux-sh2h-label\">Avg goals scored<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-home\">1.4<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-sep\">&middot;<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-away\">1.2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"mux-sh2h-label\">Avg goals conceded<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-home\">1.0<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-sep\">&middot;<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-away\">1.4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"mux-sh2h-label\">Under 2.5 (last 5)<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-home\">&middot;<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-sep\">&middot;<\/td><td class=\"mux-sh2h-away\">&middot;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody>\n    <\/table>\n<\/div><div id=\"mux-lineup\">\n    <div class=\"mux-lineup-header\">\n        <span class=\"mux-lineup-status mux-lineup-status-probable\">Probable lineup<\/span>\n        <h3 class=\"mux-lineup-title\">Lineups: Derby County vs Lincoln City<\/h3>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"mux-lineup-card\">\n        <div class=\"mux-lineup-columns\"><div class=\"mux-lineup-col\"><h4 class=\"mux-lineup-team\">Derby County<\/h4><div class=\"mux-lineup-formation\">4-2-3-1<\/div><p class=\"mux-lineup-section-label\">Starters<\/p><ol class=\"mux-lineup-list mux-lineup-starters\"><li><span class=\"mux-lineup-num\">1<\/span> J.
