As we prepare for our fifth encounter against Salford City this weekend, we look back at our record against the Ammies.
EISA SECURES A POINT IN LAST AWAY VISIT
Salford City 1-1 Iron
Saturday, March 6th, 2021
Abo Eisa equalised from the penalty spot after Salford captain Tom Clarke's opener in a tight contest at The Peninsula Stadium earlier this year.
The home side should have taken the lead when top scorer Ian Henderson flashed an early free header over the bar, while the Iron had a great chance of their own when Jordan Hallam's one-on-one effort was cleared off the line by Ibou Touray.
The Ammies broke the deadlock after 33 minutes when Touray's corner was palmed out by back-peddling Iron goalkeeper Mark Howard and Clarke was on hand to hook in.
Ten minutes later it was all square as Eisa went down under Di'Shon Bernard's challenge and sent Vaclav Hladky the wrong way from the spot.
A cagey second half was punctuated by a string of substitutions before the hosts almost grabbed an 80th-minute winner when sub Mani Dieseruvwe crashed a header off the post from Ash Hunter's whipped corner.
VAN VEEN NETS IN FIRST EVER MEETING
Salford City 1-1 Iron
Saturday, October 26th, 2021
Salford came from behind to grab a point against United as then on-loan Iron defender Cameron Burgess netted against his parent club at the Peninsula Stadium.
Kevin van Veen had given the visitors a 34th-minute lead but Salford hit back on the stroke of half-time through Burgess, who was on a season-long loan with the Ammies.
Scunthorpe enjoyed the better of the early stages, with van Veen's effort superbly saved by Salford goalkeeper Mark Howard.
The visitors went in front when Jamie Ward found van Veen, who switched the ball on to his left foot inside the area and smashed it past Howard to record his sixth goal of the season in all competitions.
