The Iron round off their Sky Bet League One campaign with a home fixture against Coventry City.
Despite Graham Alexander’s side already securing a place in the play-offs, they will be aiming for another three points to make it five successive league victories.Alexander says Scott Wiseman (knee) is likely to miss this weekend's clash, but is hopeful he'll be fit for the play-offs.
Matt Crooks (knee), Luke Daniels (ribs), Charlie Goode (ankle) and Tom Hopper (shin) will miss the rest of the season.
It looked very much like Coventry were certain to level things up through Jamie Sterry, whose back post attempt seemed to be goal-bound, but Conor Townsend somehow managed to block the effort as the visitors held out for victory.

Josh Morris’ finish earned United all three points at the Ricoh Arena earlier on in the campaign.
Paddy Madden had the away side’s best opportunity of the opening period, but he could only fire straight at Lee Burge on the volley.
Ten minutes prior to the interval Daniel Agyei squandered a superb opportunity as he fired over without making Luke Daniels work.
United got their breakthrough on 10 minutes after the restart though and, after good play from Madden down the left flank, the Irishman crossed for Morris who was on hand to smash home at the near post.
