FA Cup: Lincoln City aim to 'achieve the impossible' against Burnley

National League leaders Lincoln City will aim to "achieve the impossible" against Premier League side Burnley in the FA Cup fifth round.

The Imps have reached the last 16 for the first time in 130 years.

Victory on Saturday would see them become the first non-league team to reach the quarter-finals since 1925.

"If we're realistic, we'd probably only beat them once in a hundred times but we've got to believe this is that one game," boss Danny Cowley said.

"We're going to be brave, we're going to fight and give it one hell of a go.
