It's advantage Plymouth Argyle so far with their 3rd position in the League Two table, welcoming Crawley Town who are placed 14th.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Plymouth Argyle form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at Home Park as Plymouth Argyle have scored 27 goals to get 27 points from 13 games. The overall stats in the League Two are 8-3-2 (wins-draws-losses). With a nice streak brewing from their home games, Plymouth Argyle are also looking for their fifth consecutive victory regardless of location.
Plymouth Argyle enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Stevenage's place. The match ended 2-1 with B. Moore and R. Hardie scoring. Ahead of that match, Plymouth Argyle won a home game hosting Mansfield Town (3-1).
The victory against Stevenage came after R. Hardie's winning goal. The Plymouth Argyle manager R. Lowe was very happy afterwards with the decision to bring on that player in the 77th minute.
The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Plymouth Argyle matches with similar probabilities have ended with 2 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats (from three games).
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the League Two game versus Newport County in only four days. This game is also played here at Home Park.
Plymouth Argyle can score goals in their home matches. After 13 league matches they have found the net 27 times. Plymouth Argyle have conceded 13 in these home matches.
Crawley Town form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Crawley Town so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 1-7-6 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row.
Crawley Town are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the League Two against Grimsby Town (placed 19th). Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Walsall's place.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Crawley Town playing away, we found five games. Results were 2 away wins, 1 draw and 2 home wins.
After this away game Crawley Town return home for a League Two game against Scunthorpe United. That game is only four sleeps after this.
Crawley Town are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 17 away goals from 14 games (in the league). Crawley Town have conceded 23 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Crawley Town - Plymouth Argyle 2-2. Numbers for the last seven meetings between these two teams are: 3 wins for Plymouth Argyle, 3 draws and 1 win for Crawley Town. Over 2,5 goals: 3 times; under 2,5 goals: 4 games.Top Goalscorers
