Logistic Regression with sklearn

Hi. I would like to ask whether sklearn is unsuitable for logistic regression because in the examples for Logistic Regression only statsmodel library was used and if sklearn is suitable how do i go about it  also  steps carried out on the numerical variables in Linear Regression like assumption check(e.g No multicolinearity) ,normalization(i.e scaling),removal of ouliers where not carried out on the numerical variables for logistic regression, is it because it is unnecessary when performing logistic regression?

Hi Buks, Actually in other courses such as Customer Analytics and Python+SQL+Tableau we employ sklearn to perform a logistic regression. Sklearn is perfectly good for such models, with the only flaw that it does not provide the p-values of the coefficients. Best, Iliya
