Plymouth Argyle vs Stockport Predictions

Argyle can make a stronger start

Plymouth should avoid last season’s early struggles by claiming three points in their opening game on Saturday. The hosts finished last season in fine form, with four wins in their final six League One games.

Stockport finished third in the league last season, with 77 points from 22 wins, 11 draws and 13 losses, but it’s been an uncertain summer for the club. Plymouth finished eighth in their first season back in the third tier, with 73 points from 22 wins, seven draws and 17 defeats.

It would be no surprise to see Plymouth score, having found the net in 27 of their final 28 league games. They also scored at least twice in six of their last eight League One matches to end last season.

They are aiming to pick up where they left off after finishing last season with two straight League One wins, and a six-game unbeaten streak.

A 1-0 win for Plymouth looks a decent correct score option. Stockport’s last two League One openers have featured fewer than three goals and Plymouth have recorded two straight wins in the league, both by a single goal.
