Plymouth Argyle vs Coventry City

Current streaks

Recent form

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle's recent form has been inconsistent, with the team struggling to string together consecutive positive results. Their last six matches have seen them alternate between wins and losses, with one draw breaking the pattern. Despite their lowly 24th position in the Championship, Argyle have managed to score in five of their last six games, averaging 1.17 goals per match. However, their defensive frailties are evident, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game and keeping only one clean sheet in this period. The Pilgrims have been involved in several high-scoring encounters, with 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Their 3-2 defeat to Derby County stands out as a particularly entertaining fixture. While Plymouth have shown the ability to compete, their inability to maintain consistency has likely contributed to their precarious league position.

Coventry City

Coventry City have shown a mixed run of form in their recent fixtures, but they've managed to maintain a respectable 5th position in the Championship table. The Sky Blues have demonstrated resilience, bouncing back from consecutive losses against Sheffield United and Burnley to secure two wins in their last three matches. Their defensive performance has been noteworthy, with three clean sheets in their last six games, including a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Sunderland. Whilst there haven't been any particularly high-scoring encounters, Coventry have maintained a positive goal difference, scoring an average of 1.5 goals per game whilst conceding just one. The team's ability to grind out results is evident in their even split between high and low-scoring matches, with 50% of games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring in half of their recent fixtures.

Recent home/away form

Plymouth Argyle

Plymouth Argyle have shown mixed form at home recently, with their last six matches at Home Park yielding three wins, one draw, and two losses. The Pilgrims are currently enjoying a two-game winning streak at home, having secured victories against Sheffield United and Norwich. Despite their overall league struggles, as evidenced by their 24th position, Plymouth have been prolific in front of goal at home, scoring an impressive 12 goals in their last six matches, averaging 2 goals per game. A particularly high-scoring encounter was their 5-1 thrashing of Millwall, which stands out as their most dominant performance. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 83% of these matches, and 83% of the games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting that Plymouth's home fixtures tend to be entertaining, goal-filled affairs.

Coventry City

Coventry City's recent away form shows a mixed bag of results, with a notable three-match winning streak followed by a dip in performance. The Sky Blues have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, particularly their 3-2 victory over Oxford United. Despite their recent stumble, Coventry have managed to maintain a respectable goal-scoring record, netting 1.5 goals per game on average. However, their defensive record mirrors this exactly, conceding the same number of goals, resulting in a goal difference of zero over the last six away matches. Interestingly, both teams have scored in two-thirds of these games, suggesting that Coventry's away fixtures tend to be entertaining affairs for neutral spectators. The team's current 5th position in the league, with 66 points from 43 games, indicates that their overall performance, including home matches, has been stronger than their recent away form might suggest.
