Match Preview
Kerr banned for injury-hit Imps Lincoln have a lengthy list of concerns ahead of the visit of Stevenage. Scott Kerr is definitely out as the midfielder begins a three-match ban following his red card in the defeat at Accrington a week ago. Defenders Paul Green and Ian Pearce (ankle) and midfielder Clark Keltie (thigh) are major doubts while forwards Delroy Facey (bronchitis), Ben Hutchinson and Drewe Broughton (ankle) are slight concerns. Broughton will hope to shake off his knock as he feels he has not played to his potential so far this season. He told BBC Lincolnshire: "I haven't hit my own form and it is disappointing. But all you can do is roll your sleeves up, keep working hard and not hide. "That is what I intend to do and I think we all have to do that." Stevenage manager Graham Westley could hand new signing Chris Holroyd his debut. The striker has joined on a three-month loan from Brighton and may even go straight into the starting line-up. Stacy Long is likely to keep his place after returning from suspension and Peter Winn is pushing for a first-team start after scoring on reserve duty in midweek. Westley has doubts over Joel Byrom after he was replaced just 14 minutes into the reserve game against Southend in midweek after suffering a head injury. Darren Murphy is definitely not considered after breaking a leg and Chris Beardsley still hasn't recovered from a dislocated shoulder.

Match Report
Stevenage win away A first-half strike from Chris Holroyd gave Stevenage their first away win in the Football League as they came away from Lincoln with a 1-0 win. Holroyd was first to react to a 39th-minute long throw, smashing the ball past Lincoln keeper Joe Anyon as the home defence stood and watched. Lincoln went close in the opening minute when Cian Hughton fired into the side-netting. City dominated the opening half-hour but were frustrated by the Stevenage defence. Lincoln winger Albert Jarrett saw a dangerous cross cleared off the line by Lawrie Wilson and a goalbound header from Moses Swaibu was then cleared off the line by Stevenage forward Charlie Griffin. Griffin was unlucky not to double Stevenage's lead just before half-time when Anyon tipped over his free header. Lincoln went looking for the equaliser after the break, but it was Griffin who missed another good chance, mis-kicking from 12 yards out. Ben Hutchinson slashed a header across the Stevenage box on 85 minutes, but the visitors easily contained the home side and secured an historic victory.
