Plymouth Argyle host Swansea City at the Home Park in the EFL Championship on Tuesday, looking for only their fifth win of the campaign. After surviving relegation last season, which marked their first appearance in the second tier since 2010, the Greens find themselves in the fight for survival again.
Out of 18 matches in the 2024-25 season thus far, Wayne Rooney's side have won just four and sit in 22nd position in the league standings with a mere 17 points in the bag.
The Devon outfit come into the fixture on the back of two consecutive losses: a 6-1 thumping at the hands of Norwich City followed by a crushing 4-0 loss to Bristol City. Having also drawn their previous two outings, Plymouth are winless in their last four games.
Luckily for them, their visitors are struggling right now too. The Swans have won just twice more in comparison this season, and just once in their last five. Back-to-back losses to Burnley and Leeds United were followed by a 2-1 win over Derby County, and then consecutive draws against Portsmouth and Luton Town.
