Key Stats

  • Plymouth Argyle’s backline is lacking consistency this season, as the team conceded a whopping 61 goals so far.
  • Plymouth’s last five league games resulted in one win, one draw, and three matches lost.
  • Preston lost only one of their last five league matches.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Bookies pick Plymouth

  • HOME: 38/25 (2.52) – 39.3%
  • DRAW: 12/5 (3.40) – 25.0%
  • AWAY: 9/5 (2.80) – 35.7%

*These Plymouth vs Preston odds are subject to change

As you can see from the odds above, the bookmakers favor Plymouth Argyle as the expected winners, giving them a 39.3% win probability at 38/25 (2.52). Understandably, this makes Preston North End the underdogs, with a lackluster 35.7% win probability, but we are sure coach Lowe’s boys will shock the Pilgrims.

Over 2.5 Goals at 7/10 (1.70) has a 58.82% chance of success and we highly recommend it, as both sides have been conceding goals recently. Also, in the betting insights section for this week, you’ll see some more very interesting betting suggestions.

Preston Norh End have a slight head-to-head advantage when it comes to facing Plymouth Argyle in recent matches. An advantage that is about to become more convincing on Saturday evening.

Plymouth team news and form: Pilgrims not out of the woods yet

With only one victory in the last five league games, Plymouth Argyle are getting dangerously close to the relegation zone. If coach Ian Foster wants to avoid such a dreadful fate, he’d have to prove our Plymouth Argyle vs Preston predictions wrong. He’ll be able to count on his best 11 players for this game, but we still fancy the visitors’ chances.

Predicted lineup: Cooper (GK), Gibson, Phillips, Pleguezuelo, Forshaw, Houghton, Miller, Mumba, Bundu, Whittaker & Hardie

Preston team news and form: Lowe wants to maintain record

Coach Ryan Lowe has a perfect 1-0-0 record against Plymouth Argyle and we are sure he’d like to keep it that way. 19-year-old Finlay Cross-Adair won’t partake in this Championship event, but coach Lowe has plenty of quality players to pick from when it comes to attack, so our Plymouth vs Preston predictions should succeed.

Predicted lineup: Woodman (GK), Storey, Lindsay, Hughes, Browne, Whiteman, McCann, Millar, Frokjaer-Jensen, Keane & Jacobsen

Player to watch: Morgan Whittaker

If the visitors can nullify top dog Whittaker, perhaps our Plymouth vs Preston betting tips have a fighting chance. Plymouth’s winger has pulled off a one-man-army display this season, scoring plenty of goals for his team in the 2023/24 Championship campaign.
