Bristol City prepare to entertain Scunthorpe United at Ashton Gate on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 3 of the 7 previous games, with the Robins winning just 2.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Ashton Gate was less than a year ago, in January 2006, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League One match.
