Scunthorpe are having a rough time. They have lost most of their recent matches and haven't won in a while. Southend, on the other hand, are in much better shape, with several wins in their last few games. When these two teams have met recently, the games have been tight and low-scoring, mostly ending by a single goal.

Given Scunthorpe's poor form and Southend's strong run, this looks like it could be a win for Southend. The match should be close, but Southend have the better recent record and that gives them the edge here.
