Recent form

Derby County

The Rams have been defensively solid, conceding just six goals in their last six games, but have struggled to keep clean sheets, with only one in this period.

Derby's tendency to draw matches is evident, with three consecutive draws in their recent run. The team's resilience is noteworthy, as they've managed to avoid consecutive losses and have scored in 83% of their games. Currently sitting 13th in the Championship, Derby County have shown they can be competitive but need to convert more of their draws into wins to climb the table.

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent form has been inconsistent, with their position of 22nd in the Championship reflecting their struggles. The Pilgrims have managed just two wins in their last six matches, bookending this run with victories against Portsmouth and Blackburn Rovers. However, their defensive frailties are evident, having conceded a concerning 13 goals in these six games, with a particularly heavy 5-0 defeat to Cardiff City standing out. Their goal difference of -7 over this period is worrying, although they did show resilience in a high-scoring 3-3 draw with Preston. Argyle have kept only one clean sheet in these fixtures, and their matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 67% of games seeing over 2.5 goals. The team's ability to score consistently (averaging 1 goal per game) is overshadowed by their defensive issues, conceding an average of 2.17 goals per match.

Recent home/away form

Derby County

Derby County have shown impressive form at home recently, with a notable run of four consecutive victories before their most recent two matches. The Rams have been particularly strong defensively, keeping four clean sheets in their last six home games and conceding only 0.67 goals per game on average. Their attacking prowess has also been evident, scoring 10 goals across these six matches, with a standout 3-0 win against Bristol City.

The team's ability to grind out results is further highlighted by their positive goal difference of 6 over this period.

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent away form has been dismal, with the team currently enduring a six-game losing streak on the road. Their struggles are particularly evident in their goal-scoring drought, having failed to find the back of the net in any of these matches. Defensively, they've been equally poor, conceding 13 goals without keeping a single clean sheet. The thrashing at Cardiff City stands out as a particularly heavy defeat, with Argyle conceding five goals. Interestingly, despite their high number of goals conceded, two-thirds of their away matches have seen fewer than 2.5 goals, suggesting that most of their losses have been by narrow margins. This run of form has contributed to their low league position, sitting 22nd in the Championship with just 15 points from 14 games.
