"Starting with the hosts, watching their extended purple patch come to an end over the weekend as they eventually fell to a 1-0 loss at the hands of Carlisle, Scunthorpe are desperately seeking an immediate response here. Nevertheless, despite only making their National League return this season, Andy Butler's men have enjoyed a stellar start to proceedings. Getting Tuesday's return to Lincolnshire underway sat in the play-off places, the Irons have their sights set on mounting another promotion charge this year."
"As for the visitors, losing their League Two status with a whimper last season and dealing with a string of public issues behind the scenes, Morecambe find themselves at the heart of an extended nightmare. Suffering a late collapse against Tamworth over the weekend as they eventually had to settle for a 1-1 stalemate, new boss Ashvir Singh Johal could already have some mounting pressure on his shoulders."
Scunthorpe have started the National League season strongly, sitting in the play-off places and losing only one of their first 12 league matches. The hosts seek an immediate response after a 1-0 defeat at Carlisle but remain confident following an eye-catching 3-1 victory at York City. Morecambe face severe difficulties after relegation, public off-field issues, and poor results, including a 5-2 defeat to Gateshead and a 5-0 loss at Truro. The visitors have collected just one point from their last four league fixtures and their new manager faces mounting pressure.
