Owing to a fully healthy group to pick from, the Scunthorpe United boss Michael Nelson does not have any fitness concerns whatsoever ahead of this game.
๐ฎ Prediction
Weโre of the view that Halifax will probably get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.
At the other end, Scunthorpe United are also probably going to find it difficult to score a goal of their own but we do think that itโs more than likely that they will be pulling one back during this clash, too.
Weโre therefore anticipating a 3-1 margin for Halifax after 90 minutes.
