Match Result Prediction: Scunthorpe To Win
Scunthorpe may be one of the worst teams in the league this season but their opponents are the worst team. So, this is essentially a battle between two teams tha will likely go down this season, although Scunthorpe is currently three points ahead and in a bit better position.
With that in mind and considering the simple fact that Maidstone lost four of their last six games while Scunthorpe got some wins recently, our first Maidstone vs Scunthorpe prediction is for the guests to win the game.
Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes
Scunthorpe and Maidstone are two of the weakest teams in the league this season and they are not among the best attacking teams, obviously. In this case, they will face each other in a match that could be key for their future at the end of the season, with the guests in better position to survive at the moment.
With the two teams that are fighting against relegation and each other, we expect to see goals from both sides. They have two of the weakest defenses, so it makes sense, even if we didn't see both teams score in the first game between them. After all, both teams have scored in 62% of all Maidstone and 61% of all Scunthorpe matches in the league this season.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to Scunthorpe
Maidstone's defense is so bad that we even expect to see multiple goals from Scunthorpe in this game, despite the fact that the guests are also in the relegation zone and likely to go down.
Also, Scunthorpe will remember the loss in the first half of the season and they will want to get some payback, in addition to keeping their hopes of survival alive. So, we can see both teams scoring and Scunthorpe winning, so our final Maidstone vs Scunthorpe prediction is for the guests to win 2-1.
Maidstone – Scunthorpe: Form, Recent Games, and News
We will now take a closer look at both teams, their form, recent matches, and Maidstone vs Scunthorpe lineups:
Maidstone Preview
Maidstone started the season in a much better way and we definitely did not expect them to struggle this much at this point of the season. We did not think that they will get relegated this season but right now, it feels like they will get back to the lower tier of English football as they are currently sitting in the last place in the standings and ten points behind the first team outside of the relegation zone.
Scunthorpe Preview
Who would have thought that the problems at Scunthorpe run so deep that the team would be among the weakest ones even in the National League. There is no point in talking about the League Two campaign last season – they conceded nearly 100 goals int. But going from last in L2 to one of the second-last team in the National League is a disaster and Scunthorpe need immediate improvement or they will get relegated again.
