History of the Plymouth Argyle v Sheffield Wednesday fixture

Sheff. Wed. face a trip to Plymouth Argyle at Home Park on Saturday afternoon, having the edge over their hosts in previous meetings. The visitors have won 6 of the 17 previous games, with the hosts winning just 5.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in October 2008, as they swept to an impressive 4 - 0 win in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Plymouth Argyle's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Pilgrims have scored 8, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Sheff. Wed.'s away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the The Owls have hit 5 goals, 8 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Plymouth Arg. are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola Championship having mustered a points tally of 2 from their 4 matches played. Sheff. Wed.'s 5 points from 4 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position.
