LINCOLN City will be looking for a second successive win and a second successive giant leap of faith with the visit of York City to Sincil Bank tomorrow.

Lincoln's 2-0 win over struggling Hartlepool United in midweek was only their second of the season.

However, the three-point haul was enough to see them climb from 20th in Division Three to one place above City on goal difference.

A third victory will put further daylight between them and the early-season strugglers and could take them into the top half of the table.

Manager Alan Buckley should benefit from being able to name an unchanged squad.

Although late fitness tests will be given to strikers Lee Thorpe (back) and Tony Battersby (thigh) both are expected to start.

Former Bury defender Stuart Bimson made his first appearance after four games out with a groin problem against 'pool and, having come through unscathed, will once again feature at left-back with Peter Gain, ex-Tottenham, moving into midfield.
