History of the Plymouth Argyle v Watford fixture

Watford face a trip to Plymouth Argyle at Home Park on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Hornets will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 16 and win only 6 of the 31 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2008, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Plymouth Argyle's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Pilgrims have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Watford's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Hornets have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Plymouth Arg. are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola Championship having mustered a points tally of 39 from their 35 matches played. Watford find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 39 points from their 33 matches.
