Plymouth Argyle, Recent FormLosing 2-1 away to Birmingham City won't leave the Plymouth Argyle squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. In that game they had 64% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Birmingham City who had 13 attempts and 4 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
They have had a good run of form at Home Park recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
Goalscorer Ryan Hardie will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Plymouth Argyle.
Blackburn Rovers, Recent FormBlackburn Rovers will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 1-0 away win against Watford. Their share of possession in that meeting was 35%, while racking up 5 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Watford had 24 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Jon Dahl Tomasson will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 11 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Their form has to be regarded as good of late with 5 matches unbeaten from their last 6 and 3 wins bagged along the way.
Sammie Szmodics is the man of the moment at Blackburn Rovers right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
Blackburn Rovers suffered the disappointment of a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Plymouth Argyle the last time they met in the league.
Goals should be on the cards for Plymouth in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against The Riversiders in their last 5 meetings together.
Plymouth manager Steven Schumacher has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Michael Cooper (Cruciate ligament), Brendan Galloway (Unknown) and Macaulay Gillesphey (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Arnór Sigurðsson (Leg) and Jack Vale (Leg) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Jon Dahl Tomasson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
