As the Iron prepare for Saturday's home game versus Newport County, we look back at some of the recent matches against the Rodney Parade side, plus our full record.
HOME DRAW LAST TERM
Iron 1-1 Newport County
Saturday, September 12th, 2020
We shared the spoils on the opening day of the League Two season last year as Ryan Taylor's goal was cancelled out by Ryan Loft's spectacular effort.
Exiles league debutant Taylor was credited with Newport's opener, which came 13 minutes before the break.
The ex-Plymouth Argyle striker appeared to touch home a shot from fellow forward Tristan Abrahams.
But Scunthorpe deservedly levelled just before the hour through Loft's brilliant long-range drive.
MADDEN AND SYERS STRIKE, BUT IRON PEGGED BACK
Newport County 2-2 Iron
Saturday, March 1st, 2014
Chris Zebroski's 90th-minute equaliser for Newport denied the Iron the chance to go top of League Two.
United's hopes of stretching their unbeaten run to 18 matches looked under threat when Lee Minshull's diving header put the Exiles in front.
Paddy Madden turned home a cross from the left to equalise and David Syers's low shot seven minutes from time, looked to have won it for United.
However, Zebroski fired home an Adam Chapman corner to gain point for County.
