Leicester City prepare to entertain Scunthorpe United at Walkers Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the Foxes.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Walkers Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2009, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a League One match.
