- Competition: England - League One

- Venue: The Wham Stadium (Accrington)
In each of the previous three seasons (excluding 2019/20, which was interrupted due to the corona virus pandemic), Accrington mostly spun around the middle of the table - between the 11th and 14th positions. This year, the Lancashire club is playing its weakest season in League One (third tier) and judging by the current results, they face a fight for survival. The bad form of recent weeks has pushed them into the relegation zone, but they still don't have much reason to worry, given that only a point separates them from the positions that guarantee survival.
Plymouth, which was founded way back in 1886 (137 years ago), has never been a member of the elite rank of island football until now. For a while they were standard second division side, but then their six-year stay in the Championship ended in the 2009/10 season. Then, the club from Devon slipped to the fourth tier due to financial problems. This season, after 13 years of moving from the fourth to the third and vice versa, they are well on their way to ensure a direct return to the strongest second league in the world - the Championship. They are currently sitting in a high second position with 77 collected points, which is only one point less than the current leader Sheffield Wed, who has two games more than them.
Accrington vs Plymouth Betting Tips: Team2 to Win
Plymouth are coughing on their visits in recent weeks, but it's time to end the fever and the series of two consecutive defeats (three in the last four). We say that, because they are visiting Accrington, a team that is normally on their list of dear customers. The Pilgrims, in addition to beating them, often fill their net.
Namely, the boys in green and white jerseys tied four triumphs against the club from Lancashire, and at the same time they scored three or more goals in each of the last three clashes. One of those wins came autumn in the first meeting, when Plymouth routinely beat Accrington 3-0 at home and we could see a replay on Tuesday.
John Coleman's team is in an evident crisis, not only in the game, but also in terms of results, which is best witnessed by the fact that they have won only two occasions out of the last 15 games. Squeaks in all lines of the team, and perhaps most of all in the attack, since they shaken the net only six times in the last 11 League One clashes.
The team from Home Park, after they experienced a debacle against Barnsley (0-3), did not need much time to return to winning waves. The Pilgrims achieved a comfortable 2-0 triumph over the lanterns Forest Green in their couryard at the weekend, which was their third registered success in the last four league games.
We are of the opinion that Accrington, even with the advantage of the home field, does not have the strength to wrestle with Plymouth, which is a few steps away from returning to the Championship - for the first time in 13 years. The Pilgrims are an incomparably better team in every view than Accrington and hopefully they will have no problem adding the new three points.

Accrington will not be able to count on first-choice goalkeeper Lukas Jensen until March 25. The Dane will serve the second of a three-match suspension against Plymouth, and he will be replaced by Toby Savin.
Apart from him, Accrington coach John Coleman will definitely be without the services of six injured players - Jay Rich-Baghuelou, Ryan Astley, Liam Coyle, Ethan Hamilton, Joe Pritchard and David Morgan.

Plymouth Team News
Plymouth is not in a better personnel situation either. Pilgrims' coach Steven Schumacher will be without the help of Birgimen loanee Sam Cosgrove, with the centre-forward suffering from a calf problem.
The author of 12 goals in this year's League One term will be in the recovery room along with first-choice Plymouth goalkeeper Michael Cooper (Knee injury) and midfielder Adam Randell (Ankle injury).
