Our Three Predictions For Plymouth Argyle vs Watford

- Third Prediction: Plymouth Argyle – Over 1.5 Goals – 5/4
First Prediction For Plymouth Argyle vs Watford – Over 2.5 Goals – 3/5
Watford head into this clash in sixth and the final play-off position in the Championship. A win here would send them up to fourth, with all of their promotion rivals playing at the weekend. As a result, we expect them to push forward which could open this game up. Plymouth may have been dreadful on the road, but their home form has been excellent and they have only failed to score once in front of their own supporters. Over 2.5 goals seems sensible, with Argyle having featured in seven games with three or more goals, whilst Watford have been involved in 10.
Second Prediction For Plymouth Argyle vs Watford – Plymouth Argyle – Draw No Bet – 111/100
Due to their contrasting league positions, Watford enter the game as favourites. However, Plymouth haven’t lost at home since August whilst teams such as Sunderland, Luton Town and Blackburn Rovers have all come away from the south coast empty handed. It’s this form which keeps the Pilgrims outside the relegation places. Like Plymouth, Watford have been much better at home. They have lost six games this season, with all of them coming on away soil. A win for Wayne Rooney’s side is an attractive pick but protecting your bet with a draw no bet option is the smart choice.
Third Prediction For Plymouth Argyle vs Watford – Plymouth Argyle – Over 1.5 Goals – 5/4
Plymouth have 15 goals to their name this season, with 13 of them coming at home. They have also scored on two or more occasions in four of their seven fixtures at Home Park this season. Alternatively, Watford have leaked goals, conceding 22 in 15 outings thus far. Furthermore, 18 of them have come on the road, with even their wins (3-2 at Millwall and 6-2 at Sheffield Wednesday) seeing them concede twice. There is value to be had here.

Full Preview of the Game: Last Results and Head-To-Head
The international break has given both teams the opportunity to press the reset button, although the duo head into the fixture in relatively good form. Plymouth have avoided defeat in their last two outings, beating Portsmouth before securing a valuable point at Pride Park against Derby County. The did lose 3-0 against Leeds United at the beginning of the month, although that fixture was seen as somewhat of a free hit against a team expected to be pushing for the title. Meanwhile, Watford have won three of their last four to move into the play-off positions, although did record a loss at Swansea City earlier this month.
Plymouth’s promotion to the Championship in 2023 saw the two teams meet for the first time in 13 years last season. Both clashes ended in a draw, with a 0-0 played out at Vicarage Road and an entertaining 3-3 at Home Park. The two were drawn against each other in the second round of the Carabao Cup earlier this season, with the Hornets securing a 2-0 win.
