Recent form

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent form has been concerning, with the team currently languishing in 24th position in the Championship. The Pilgrims have struggled to find consistency, winning just one of their last six matches across all competitions. Their defence has been particularly vulnerable, conceding an average of two goals per game and keeping only one clean sheet in this period. Notably, Plymouth are on a three-match losing streak in the league, which was only interrupted by a hard-fought away victory against Portsmouth. The team's goal-scoring output has also been underwhelming, with an average of less than one goal per game. However, their matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals. The FA Cup tie against Manchester City, although ending in defeat, saw Plymouth score against the Premier League giants, highlighting their ability to compete against top-tier opposition.

Norwich

Norwich's recent form has been a mixed bag, with their last six games yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Canaries have shown resilience in front of goal, scoring an average of 1.67 goals per game, but their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 1.5 goals per match. A particularly high-scoring affair was their 4-2 victory over Stoke City, which contributed significantly to their total of 10 goals scored in this period. Norwich have been involved in entertaining matches, with both teams scoring in 83% of these fixtures and an impressive average of 3.17 total goals per game. Their most recent outing saw them secure a vital clean sheet in a 1-0 win against West Brom, potentially signalling an improvement in their defensive organisation as they look to climb from their current 10th position in the Championship table.

Recent home/away form

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent home form has been a rollercoaster of results, with a notable three-match winning streak followed by a draw and two consecutive losses. Despite their struggles in the league, sitting at the bottom of the table, the Pilgrims have shown flashes of brilliance at home. Their most impressive performance came in a thrilling 5-1 victory over Millwall, showcasing their attacking potential. The team have also demonstrated their ability to compete against top-tier opposition, evident in their 1-0 upset win against Liverpool in the FA Cup. However, their recent dip in form, conceding three goals in each of their last two home matches, highlights defensive vulnerabilities. Over their last six home games, Plymouth have been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 67% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in two-thirds of the fixtures, indicating entertaining but potentially risky football for their supporters.

Norwich

Norwich City's recent away form has been less than impressive, with the Canaries struggling to find consistency on their travels. In their last six away matches, Norwich have managed just one win, alongside two draws and three losses, indicating a challenging period for the team on the road. The team's goal-scoring prowess has been notably lacking, with only four goals netted across these six games, averaging a mere 0.67 goals per match. Defensively, Norwich have also faced difficulties, conceding eight goals in total, with a concerning average of 1.33 goals conceded per game. Despite these struggles, it's worth noting that the majority of Norwich's away fixtures have been low-scoring affairs, with 83% of these matches featuring under 2.5 goals. This trend suggests that while Norwich have struggled to find the back of the net, they've also managed to keep games relatively tight, even if results haven't always gone their way.
