Sutton United - Scunthorpe

Sutton United aim to steady their season after suffering consecutive defeats as they welcome Scunthorpe United to the VBS Community Stadium on 12 September 2026. This matchday 7 encounter sees the hosts looking to rediscover the defensive solidity that defined their early August campaign, having conceded five goals without reply in their last two outings against Barrow and Wealdstone.

Scunthorpe United arrive in similarly difficult circumstances, currently enduring a two-match losing streak that has seen them ship six goals across defeats to Harrogate Town and Carlisle United. Their recent history in this fixture remains competitive, with the sides exchanging narrow victories in their two National League meetings earlier this year. With both teams desperate to break their respective winless runs, the pressure is mounting to secure a vital three points in this mid-table clash.
