Looking to extend on their recent purple patch this weekend, Wealdstone will host a struggling Scunthorpe on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another impressive display, Wealdstone will be smelling the chance to extend on their recent flurry here. In their 19 National League matchups so far this season, they have recorded seven wins, five draws and seven defeats, scoring 20 and conceding 27 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 26, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat 13th in the standings and just a single point adrift of finding a route into the top-half. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-1 victory away at York City, Wealdstone are unbeaten in their last three National League contests – a run that has seen them muster seven points. Despite their recent issues on home soil, Saturday’s hosts are rightfully tipped as a standout pick here.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a nightmare run of form since opening the 2022/23 campaign, Scunthorpe are at the heart of a relegation scrap. In their 20 National League matchups so far this season, they have recorded just three wins, six draws and 11 defeats, scoring 25 and conceding 40 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 15, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat down in 23rd and three points adrift of finding a route out of the drop zone. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 loss away at Dagenham & Redbridge, Scunthorpe have lost each of their last four National League contests by an aggregate score of 9-2. Given the recent gulf in class between Saturday’s opponents, we’re backing a home victory here that can be found at appealing odds.
