7 wins needed from 14.

We're currently performing at a 65% win rate.

Another easy win for me, we are in top form right now.

Plymouth have turned their season around after starting slowly, but it's mainly based on their away form.

They're 3rd in the away table but 23rd in the home table. We're top of both the home and away tables.

Only won two of their last ten at home.

Maybe, but we are full of confidence at the moment and should be able to get at least a draw but hopefully another win.

Plymouth Argyle boss Tom Cleverley singled out new boy Ronan Curtis for praise after the winger scored his first goal for the club in the 3-1 win at Leyton Orient.

The 29-year-old was the quickest to react to the rebound after Orient keeper Tobi Oluwayemi spilled Owen Dale's long-range strike with the scores level in east London before his pinpoint corner was headed home by Mathias Ross to make the game safe with 20 minutes left.

After the match, Cleverley paid tribute to the impact Curtis has made since arriving from Port Vale last month.

"Ronan's been outstanding since he's come to the club," he told BBC Radio Devon. "In every phase, he has a high level of technical and physical quality."

Cleverley added: "He's proven at this level. He's at a great age to help our younger players as well.

"What he's brought to the team has been huge. His aerial ability, his set-piece delivery, his crossing and his creativity has been excellent.

"He's got off the mark now - [he was] really proactive following in the rebound, which is something we spoke about pre-match, and he's not a bad kid off the pitch.

I'm thinking at least a two goal victory for the good guys. 3-1 is what I would predict. We're hot right now.

My guess is a draw.
Plymouth are having a very 'up and down' season.
I originally thought they'd do quite well in this division.
However, they had a disastrous start and have struggled to reach mid table
In their last three matches, they were hammered at home by high flying Lincoln and have since had two excellent away victories.
So there is inconsistency in their performances.

I just hope Cardiff come away with a minimum of a point, as this one could be tricky!

8 minute walk for me.
I have a feeling it will be a high scoring draw,either a Desmond or a 3-3.
I have seen Argyle a few times this season,they are either dreadful or occasionally put in a decent performance

The ones posting are, but the poll has Cardiff win 39%, Plymouth 32%, so they are not really that confident. They are a decent team in good form; this will be a difficult one, but I still fancy us to win. We are getting better game after game.

Herbie Kane is a doubt for Plymouth after picking up a hamstring injury on Tuesday night away at Orient .
Plymouth are wating on results for the Huddersfield loan player .

We should be confident; their last home game was on February 7th, and they were battered 1-4 by Lincoln. I am confident we will win, they will be tired after two long away games, while we are rested after two home games and Tuesday in first gear it was like a training session for our players.

It’s called ‘getting behind your team’; something a few of ours (not including you) could take on board :thumbup:

Quite a few looking fur reasons we won’t win, rather than ‘bigging up’ our own team, who are well ahead of Plymouth in all departments! :ayatollah:

I went away to Plymouth once on Boxing Day. Left at 5 in morning or something daft. Didn’t turn up at all and were battered one nil. Horrible. Players seemed drunk. (Earnie especially).

Won’t be like that today. Made of different stuff.

Plymouth are going all out attack looking at there line up, this is going to be very tough Id be happy with a point think it will finish 2-2

Their forum says the same.

No midfield, just going all out attack. This could play into our hands on the counter with tanner and willock.
