Plymouth Argyle are on a strong run of form versus Accrington Stanley in League One. The Pilgrims won their last four meetings against Accrington and are seeking a fifth consecutive victory in midweek League One play.
Accrington Stanley are 21st in League One and one point off safety. The Reds go into the match with Plymouth on a two-match losing streak in the division. Just one of Accrington Stanley’s last six matches ended as a win.
Plymouth Argyle are second in the League One standings. A win on Tuesday night at Accrington’s Crown Ground would see them move into first place ahead of Sheffield Wednesday.
The race for automatic promotion and the League One title is close. Sheffield Wednesday (78 points) and just three points ahead of third-place Ipswich Town. Plymouth are sandwiched between the two teams.
Plymouth defeated Accrington earlier this season by a score of 3-0. Niall Ennis scored in the 24th minute to put the Pilgrims into the lead. Both clubs had players sent off on 38 minutes, reducing the match to 10 versus 10.
Sam Cosgrove scored just after the hour mark to put Plymouth up 2-0. Ryan Hardie added the third goal in second-half stoppage time.
The Pilgrims took 10 points from the last 18 points on offer in the league. They scored just eight goals across the six games while conceding nine times.
Accrington Stanley picked up five points from the last 18 points available to them. They were outscored 9-4 across the last six matches in League One.
The Reds are not a good home team. Just two of their last six home games ended as wins, and each of their last two home matches ended in defeat.
Plymouth hit a dip on the road. Their last two away matches were both losses. If there is a weakness in Plymouth’s title challenge in League One, it is their poor away form. They have a 6W-7D-5L record away from home.
Pilgrims' goalkeeper Michael Cooper looks likely to miss the match with a cruciate ligament injury. He is Steven Schumacher’s only injury issue currently. Hardie leads the team in goals with 13.
Accrington goalkeeper Lukas Jensen is suspended for the match, while midfielder Joe Pritchard is ruled out with an Achilles tendon problem. Tommy Leigh leads Accrington in goals with six.
Plymouth won 3-0 earlier this season at home versus the Reds. Although they are not playing great on the road, Plymouth should post another 3-0 win versus Accrington Stanley. Hardie could get on the scoresheet once more.
