Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Plymouth Argyle to win and under 2.5 goals9/2Plymouth carry the stronger attack, scoring 75 League One goals last season to Bradford’s 58, and play at Home Park, which supports the win. The recent record complicates it, though: Bradford took four points from the two league meetings last season, winning 1-0 at Home Park and drawing 1-1. The under 2.5 is the awkward half, because Plymouth’s own matches averaged three goals last season, 75 scored and 63 conceded across 46, a high-scoring and leaky profile that points towards goals. It leans on both recent head-to-heads staying under 2.5, against that season trend.
Aribim Pepple to score anytime and Xavier Amaechi over 0.5 shots on target3/1Pepple is the anchor: 16 League One goals last season from 71 shots and 28 on target across 36 appearances, Plymouth’s leading scorer, against a Bradford defence that conceded 53. His anytime price is well founded. Amaechi is the conditional leg. He landed 11 shots on target last season, close to one per 90 minutes, but started only seven of 34 games and logged just over 1,000 minutes, so over 0.5 shots on target depends heavily on him starting or getting an extended run. On a full appearance the line is beatable; from the bench, far less certain.

How Plymouth Argyle go into the game

Plymouth drew 1-1 at Wycombe last time out, a decent point on the road. Home Park is a fortress and they will fancy their chances.

The Pilgrims are well-backed at home and dangerous on the counter. Three points is the aim.

How Bradford City go into the game

Bradford won 1-0 at Sheffield Wednesday last time out, a fine away result. Confidence will be high.

The Bantams are organised and will look to frustrate Plymouth, but Home Park is a demanding trip.
