Recent form

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent form has been poor, with the team currently sitting in 17th position in the league table. In their last six games, they have suffered four defeats, managed one win, and secured one draw. Notably, they have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only three goals in these six matches, resulting in a low average of 0.5 goals scored per game. On the defensive side, Plymouth Argyle has conceded nine goals, with an average of 1.5 goals conceded per game. The team has also experienced a run of three consecutive defeats, which was followed by a solitary win against Middlesbrough. However, in that 2-0 victory, Plymouth Argyle managed to keep a clean sheet, their only one in the last six games. The majority of their recent matches have been low-scoring affairs, with 80% of the games featuring under 2.5 goals.

Preston

Preston North End's recent form has been relatively strong, despite their latest 2-1 defeat against Stoke City. Prior to that loss, they had gone on an impressive five-game unbeaten run, which included three wins and two draws. During this unbeaten streak, Preston kept three clean sheets and scored an impressive 10 goals, averaging 1.67 goals per game while only conceding 0.83 goals per game. One particularly high-scoring match was their 3-0 away win against Coventry on February 23rd. Currently sitting 9th in the league table with 53 points from 36 games, Preston's recent performances suggest they are a team in good form, capable of both scoring goals and maintaining a solid defensive record.

Recent home/away form

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent home form has been disappointing, with the team suffering a run of three consecutive defeats against Ipswich, West Brom, and Leeds United in the Championship. During this losing streak, Argyle failed to score a single goal while conceding seven. The team's struggles at home extend to their FA Cup match against Leeds United, where they lost 4-1 in a high-scoring affair. Prior to this poor run of form, Plymouth Argyle managed a 2-2 draw against Coventry and a 3-1 victory over Cardiff in the Championship, suggesting that their current slump is a recent development. The team's home performances have been characterized by a high number of goals, with 70% of their last six home games featuring over 2.5 goals.

Preston

Preston's recent away form has been mixed, with a run of three consecutive losses followed by back-to-back wins in their last two games. The 4-0 defeat against Chelsea in the FA Cup stands out as a particularly high-scoring game, although it was against a team from a higher division. In the Championship, Preston has managed to keep two clean sheets in their last six away games, suggesting an improvement in their defensive performance. However, their goal-scoring record has been inconsistent, with an average of 1.17 goals per game. The team's total goals average of 2.67 indicates that their away matches have been relatively high-scoring, with 50% of the games featuring over 2.5 goals.
