Blackpool 4/5 to beat Plymouth Argyle in Saturday’s League One contest
Competition: League One
Market: Blackpool win
Odds: 4/5 @ 888sport
Looking to extend their stay in the play-off positions this weekend, Blackpool will host away day strugglers Plymouth Argyle from behind closed doors on Saturday afternoon.
Starting with the hosts, enjoying what has been a real purple patch of late, Blackpool still find themselves sat in pole position to secure a play-off spot this season. In their 34 League One matchups so far this season, they have recorded 16 wins, eight draws and 10 defeats, scoring 42 and conceding 30 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 56, The Orangers open this weekend’s fixtures sat sixth in the table and it should be noted that no side in the division holds a better defensive record. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 3-1 win against Peterborough, Blackpool are unbeaten in each of their last 10 straight League One matchups. More impressive, the play-off contenders are unbeaten in each of their last 14 straight fixtures on home soil, a run that stems back to the end of October.
As for the visitors, while Plymouth might have managed to make a return to winning ways last time out, they have gained a real reputation for their issues on the road. In their 37 League One matchups so far this season, they have recorded 13 wins, nine draws and 15 defeats, scoring 47 and conceding 58 in return. Managing to muster themselves a points tally of 38, The Greens open this weekend’s fixtures sat 16th in the table and five points adrift of breaking into the top-half. As for their recent run of results, Plymouth were last seen picking up a 2-0 win against relegation scrappers Bristol Rovers, a result that brought an end to their five-match losing run. However, it should be noted, Saturday’s guests have lost each of their last four League One contests on the road and should face a stern test on Saturday afternoon.
