Plymouth vs Swansea City Prediction
Plymouth have had an inconsistent start to life in the Championship, winning three and losing five of their 10 games. That highlights the step-up in quality from League One, where they won the title at a canter last season.
Swansea, meanwhile, have had an upturn in fortunes in recent weeks, winning their last three league games. That's in contrast to their poor start that saw them go winless in their opening seven Championship outings.
Expect the two sides to cancel each other out in a low-scoring stalemate.
