Plymouth Argyle form
Plymouth Argyle will be facing a challenging match as they travel north, aiming to secure consecutive wins in the league for the first time this season. After gaining promotion to the Championship under the management of Steven Schumacher, Plymouth had a strong start, securing a home victory against Huddersfield Town and a commendable draw against Watford. However, they suffered defeats in their next matches against Southampton and Birmingham City, both of which saw decisive goals scored in injury time.
Despite these setbacks, Plymouth managed to bounce back before the international break with an impressive 3-0 win against Blackburn Rovers. However, their return to action resulted in consecutive defeats against Preston North End and Bristol City in mid-September. In their latest match against Norwich City, Plymouth showed great strength and dominance, going into halftime with a commanding 4-0 lead. Although Norwich City managed to score two late goals, Plymouth secured an impressive 6-2 victory, with Morgan Whittaker completing a hat-trick and Luke Cundle adding a sixth goal in injury time.
With renewed confidence from their recent triumph and return to winning ways, Plymouth will now be determined to end their inconsistent spell and secure back-to-back wins for the first time since their promotion. However, they are aware that this will be another tough test for them.
Plymouth Argyle Predicted Lineup
Hazard; Pleguezuelo, Scarr, Gibson; Edwards, Randell, Houghton, Mumba; Whittaker, Hardie, Azaz
