Ivanhoe seems closer to TH White to me than Tolkien, in terms of plot and style.
I imagine someone, somewhere may have done some scholarly work about links between Scott and Tolkien, but it's not any kind of widely known or referenced thing from what I can tell. And you're right it could just all be coincidental more than anything.
Thanks for your comments and insights!

Scott wrote "historical novels", not fantasy.
