Scunthorpe United form and stats

With the Scunthorpe losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Bitter travels for Scunthorpe as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Crawley Town match.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a EFL Trophy home defeat versus Mansfield Town with 1-2 on the scoreboard. A 2-3 loss hosting Solihull Moors before that.
We have checked recent matches where Scunthorpe have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those twelve games were two victories, three draws and seven defeats.
Scunthorpe has another fixture away, a League Two game, against Port Vale in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
