Scunthorpe United aim to get back to winning ways this Saturday with a trip to face AFC Hornchurch in the National League. The Iron sit 20th in the table with seven points from eight games after a midweek home loss.
A 2-0 away win at Sutton United last weekend was followed by a 1-2 defeat to Boreham Wood at Glanford Park on Wednesday. Tom Sellars-Fleming scored his second goal in two games to level the match at 1-1, but a late Boreham Wood winner secured the points for the visitors.
Their hosts, AFC Hornchurch, are positioned 11th and have lost their last two matches, including a 0-3 defeat at FC Halifax Town. Scunthorpe's recent form shows two wins from their last five outings.
Manager Jimmy Dean is expected to name a strong side as he looks to build consistency. The team that beat Sutton featured Mark Campbell in goal with a back line of Jacob Starbuck, Will Evans, Sam Ashbee and Ben Horton. Midfielders Jacob Butterfield and Danny Howe provided the platform for forwards Kian Hurst, Liam Brennan and Danny Whitehall to attack.
A positive result in East London would provide a platform before the next phase of the season. The club's current squad details and player statistics are available on our squad and stats pages.
