The poor Tuesday pre-season football programme will be enlivened by a League One match. Plymouth is playing in the third highest English competition for promotion, with twelfth-placed Cheltenham in its way. What to expect from the game?
Plymouth confirmed their good form on Saturday and stretched their winning streak to five games with a 4-0 win. They are in fourth place, guaranteeing the Championship play-offs, with a five-point lead over seventh-placed Sheffield Wednesday.
Cheltenham are also on a winning streak, taking three points in the last two rounds to jump up to twelfth place. However, the players have no motivation for the rest of the season, they are assured of relegation and can no longer even theoretically think about promotion.
The home team is led by Scottish striker Ryan Hardie, the former U21 international has scored sixteen goals and assisted four times in the league. Talented Welshman Luke Jephcott has made nine appearances alongside him and assisted on four goals.
Alfie May is having the best season of his career for Cheltenham, scoring twenty-two goals for his team (19+3). Visiting midfielder Callum Wright from Leicester scored seven times and assisted four times.
Plymouth owe their table move to their good defence, they kept a clean sheet in their last five games, they conceded more than one goal last time on 22 February.
Cheltenham are the opposite, they have scored the most goals (61) of the teams in the first half of the table, on the other hand they have only got three goals in their last four games.
Given the form of the home defence, I think Plymouth will win and take another step towards the play-offs.
