Scunthorpe United

WDDWWL

Scunthorpe United will be looking for an improved result here following the 3-0 National League loss in their previous game against Solihull Moors.

Tyrese Sinclair (15'), Bradley Stevenson (29') and Tyler French (71') scored for Solihull Moors.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent games where Scunthorpe United haven’t conceded. It will be a concern for them that Scunthorpe United have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 games, giving up 7 goals in the process.

Coming into this meeting, Scunthorpe United haven't been defeated in their previous 3 home league matches.

Braintree Town

DLDLLW

Braintree Town go into this meeting following a 2-0 National League win with the eclipse of Truro City in their previous outing.

For Braintree Town, the goals were scored by Jay Emmanuel-Thomas (85') and John Akinde (94').

In 6 of the previous six clashes featuring Braintree Town, a comparatively low number of goals have been scored between them and their opposition. The overall average number of goals per game within that period works out to a paltry 1, with the number of goals averaged by The Iron standing at 0.33. That kind of pattern won’t necessarily be sustained here, though.

Ahead of this meeting, Braintree Town have not won away from home in their last 4 league matches.

ℹ️ Team News: Scunthorpe United

Availability isn’t a big problem, with just one fitness concern for the Scunthorpe United boss Andy Butler to be concerned about from an otherwise complete set of players. Jonathan Gjoshe (surgery) is sidelined.

💭 Prediction

We feel that Scunthorpe United will, in all likelihood, get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.

At the other end, Braintree Town will not find it easy to break down their defence but we do think that it’s more than likely that they will be hitting back at some stage, too.

We reckon that it will be a controlled 3-1 margin for Scunthorpe United after 90 minutes.
