History of the Wycombe Wanderers v Scunthorpe United fixture

Wycombe are aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to Scunthorpe. Of the two previous meetings, the Chairboys have won one and drawn the other.

The last time the two teams met at Wycombe was back in January 2000, over five years ago, when the Chairboys carved out a narrow 2-1 victory in a League Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Wycombe's poor home run has seen them win just one and draw two of their last six. While the Chairboys have scored four goals in that period, a worryingly large eight have been leaked at the other end.

Scunthorpe's away form is none too clever either, having won just the one and drawn two of their previous six. While the Irons have scored five goals, they have similarly conceded on eight occasions.

Wycombe are just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two table, with 43 points from their 31 games played so far. Scunthorpe are currently occupying 2nd place, having gained a more impressive 57 points from the 31 games.
