Andy Haines will be the man in the middle for the Iron's away league clash against Barnsley.
The Tyne and Wear-based official will travel to Oakwell for his 26th game of the campaign and his eighth in Sky Bet League One.
His first game of the campaign was Walsall's 2-1 home victory over Plymouth Argyle in which he showed five yellow cards. Meanwhile, his latest encounter came a fortnight ago in League Two when he issued four cautions in MK Dons' 1-0 home defeat to Crewe Alexandra.
He's taken charge of the Iron on 18 occasions in total, most recently in November when the side progressed to the second round of the Emirates FA Cup with a 2-1 victory over Burton Albion. He showed four yellow cards on the day - one to Scunthorpe (Matthew Lund).
Of those encounters involving United, 16 of them have come at Glanford Park, so Saturday will only be Haines' third involving United away from home territory. In total, across the 18 games, he's shown 55 yellow cards and no reds.
Meanwhile, he's refereed Barnsley on nine occasions - their most recent being a 3-0 victory over Bury in League One back in February 2016. He showed three yellow cards on the day. In total, in the nine games, he's showed 22 yellows and two reds - both dismissals going to Barnsley players.
In 2017-18, he took charge of 33 games, issuing 99 yellow cards and six red. So far in this campaign, he has officiated in 25 encounters, showing 80 yellows and four reds.
On Saturday, Haines will be assisted by Matthew Jones and Christopher Husband, while Gareth Mellor has been appointed as the fourth official.
