Plymouth and Millwall are poised to meet at Home Park on Tuesday, and both sides are gunning for three points to escape the perilous positions and make a charge towards the playoff spots as they step into the 10th week of the Championship.

Last season, we witnessed one of the most thrilling promotion races in League One, in which Plymouth, Ipswich, and Sheffield Wednesday were the main actors. In the end, the boys in dark green attire were the first to reach the finish line, amassing an incredible 101 points and thus returning to the Championship for the first time since the 2009/10 season. The Pilgrims, although they can't boast a large budget, have made a respectable start in their comeback season, as they've gathered 11 points from nine rounds, placing them just five points away from the playoff positions.

Meanwhile, Millwall, under the stewardship of manager Gary Rowett last season, were on the verge of securing a playoff spot. Unfortunately, a dramatic 3-4 loss to Blackburn on the last day kept them outside the group of teams competing for promotion. Now, in the new Championship season, the goal for the Lions from southeast London is to break into the top six and achieve a return to the top tier of English football after a 35-year absence. Going by the opening matches of the season, it's evident that Millwall is yet to shake off the disappointment of their missed chance back in May, as their start hasn't been the most impressive, garnering 11 points from the first nine league outings.

Plymouth vs Millwall Betting Tips: BTTS

With both teams entering the match with hopes of victory, we anticipate witnessing an exciting and dynamic 90 minutes of football at Home Park. Whenever Plymouth takes the field, entertainment is always guaranteed. Plymouth is winning hearts with its bold attacking style of play, and despite being newcomers, they boast the fourth-best attack in the Championship with an impressive 17 goals scored in nine matches. While shining in attack, their defense displays significant shortcomings, as they've conceded a staggering 14 goals in the same period, making their defensive unit one of the most vulnerable.

Their home ground is where the Pilgrims truly shine, showcasing exceptional efficiency in the final third with 17 goals scored in their last six competitive fixtures, including a resounding 6-2 victory over Norwich in their recent home clash. As for the visitors, Millwall has grappled with limited attacking productivity, finding the back of the net just seven times this season. However, Plymouth's leaky defense offers them an opportunity to not only contemplate scoring but also securing points. Furthermore, the London Lions are hoping to replicate their previous stellar performance at Home Park, where they demolished Plymouth 5-3. All in all, we anticipate an exhilarating match where the nets will ripple at least once on both ends, as both teams strive to secure all three points to distance themselves from the danger zone.
