Prediction: 2-0
Scunthorpe
Stevenage and Scunthorpe square off against each other at Broadhall Way in what is expected to be a close League Two match. The Boro have been playing below expectations in the first half of the season, but, no doubt, a win over Cambridge United gave them a confidence boost. Stevenage aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and we are positive that they will go for a win in Saturday’s clash.
The Iron, on the other hand, quickly made amends for a 3-2 loss to Mansfield, with the team beating Walsall on the road in their last league match. Scunthorpe, though, were more than fortunate to beat the Saddlers in the midweek clash, which is probably the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on the Boro. In their last meeting at Broadhall Way Stevenage defeated Scunthorpe thanks to Greg Tansey’s goal.
