Peterborough United perform at a high level so far being 2nd in the table. Plymouth Argyle can look both up and down from their 10th position.
It's no vacation for neither Peterborough nor Plymouth Argyle as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Peterborough United form and stats
Peterborough United, who have the most scored goals (15) at home in League One, are steadily winning League One games and points here at London Road Stadium. 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat is the summary from 6 games.
The Peterborough fans got no joy from their last match, a League One game also here at London Road Stadium: A 1-2 defeat against Blackpool (placed 14th). Heartbreak before that as Peterborough lost 0-2 at Crewe Alexandra's place.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Peterborough have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 13 games) they have won eight times, drawn three and lost two.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Peterborough United as they have a new game in only four days, a FA Cup match thankfully also at home. Chorley are visiting.
Peterborough are showing their attacking force in their league home games this season, scoring more than 2,5 goals per game on average (15 goals in 6 games). On the other hand, Peterborough have conceded 7 goals.
Plymouth Argyle form and stats
As the visiting team in League One matches, Plymouth Argyle have produced an overall stat of 0-2-3 so far.
Two away games in a row for Plymouth Argyle, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-5 versus Fleetwood Town in the League One. Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Portsmouth.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Fleetwood Town was particularly ugly (1-5). The humiliation is still top of mind. It's a bit worrying for Plymouth Argyle that their goalkeeper Michael Cooper made six saves in the Fleetwood Town game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.
We have checked recent matches where Plymouth have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 13 games were four victories, two draws and seven defeats.
After this away game Plymouth Argyle return home for a FA Cup game against Lincoln City. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Plymouth are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 6 away goals from 5 games (in the league). People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Plymouth concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Peterborough won five, Plymouth Argyle won four and one draw. eight games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
