Match Analysis
This is a clash between promotion-chasing Scunthorpe and runaway leaders Rochdale. Scunthorpe are in decent form (WWLWD), strong at home, and rarely fail to score, but their defence is leaky. Rochdale have been the class of the division, with a dominant away record, a high clean sheet rate, and only one loss in their last eight. The H2H is draw-prone but Rochdale have the edge overall. Expect a competitive match, with Rochdale's superior defence and attacking balance likely to make the difference, but Scunthorpe's home threat and scoring consistency keep them in it.
