Stoke City - Plymouth Argyle predictions

Stoke City are easily the favourites in the match this Saturday, but we wouldn’t call a Home Win bet at the odds of 1.83 safe, exactly. They are more likely to win than not, but Plymouth Argyle may have a few tricks up their sleeve yet.

Plymouth Argyle stand next to no chance at beating the hosts in this match. For instance, most bookies online offer odds of 5.30 for an away win, indicating a very small chance of success.

When it comes to Stoke’s previous Championship clash, the betting odds widely got it right. It was a tight game between two similar teams and an HT/FT Sheffield Wednesday draw clearly shows it.

Plymouth Argyle last played a home game but went into it completely outmatched if the 1.52 betting odds are to be believed. However, they ended up dominating the proceedings with a small but steady lead throughout the proceedings, culminating in a 1:0 victory.

Stoke City’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Championship matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Plymouth Argyle’s recent record shows that most games end with a relatively small number of goals at the final tally. For instance, all 5 of their previous home games confirmed the Under 2.5 Goals market.

Despite the 1.83 price for a home win, the hosts lost their previous match against Plymouth Argyle. However, it’s important to keep in mind that they were the visitors in that bout.

On Saturday, both teams will have a complete roster at their disposal, thanks to a lack of injuries or suspensions.

Considering the teams’ respective records and histories, and Under 2.5 Goals bet here is a shoo-in. The returns are not exactly jaw-dropping, but that’s to be expected from a bet as safe as this one.
