Our Stevenage vs Plymouth Argyle predictions fancy the in-form Pilgrims to win a high-scoring League One midweek clash at the Lamex Stadium on Tuesday, 7.45pm kick-off.
League One serves up a midweek meeting at the Lamex Stadium on Tuesday 20 October, kick-off 7.45pm, as 12th-placed Stevenage host a Plymouth Argyle side sitting eight places and seven points above them in fourth. The hosts head in off a 2-0 defeat at Bradford City, while Plymouth have won three of their last five on the road and travel as one of the division’s sharper away teams.
Goals look the theme here, with both sides capable at one end and leaky at the other. Anthony Eadson has studied the numbers and leaned into the over markets, and our best bets for Stevenage vs Plymouth Argyle are laid out below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has picked out two bets for the Lamex Stadium, with prices taken across the leading UK bookmakers.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Second half to be the highest-scoring half | 11/10 (Sky Bet) | Stevenage’s games have come alive after the break this season. In eight of their nine League One matches, more goals have arrived in the second half than the first, and seven of those nine were goalless at half-time. Plymouth Argyle’s games tend to start quicker, with only two of their 11 level at 0-0 at the interval, but Stevenage showed in a 5-1 win at Barnsley and a 2-2 draw with Doncaster Rovers that they can join in once a game opens up. Sky Bet go 11/10 on the second half producing more goals. |
| Plymouth Argyle to win and both teams to score | 9/2 (William Hill) | Plymouth Argyle have been a different animal on their travels, winning three of five away games and scoring 10 times in the process, form that marks them as the likely winners here. Both ends should be busy, too. Stevenage have found the net in most games at home, with six goals across four Lamex outings, though they have also shipped five there and kept just two clean sheets all season. Plymouth have scored in eight of their 11 league games but leak at the back, having conceded 14 already, so the Pilgrims to win with both teams scoring at 9/2 is well worth backing. |

How Stevenage go into the game
Stevenage sit 12th in League One with 12 points from nine games, a return of three wins, three draws and three defeats, with 12 goals scored and 10 conceded. Their recent form has been mixed: a 2-0 loss at Bradford City last time out followed a 1-0 home win over Wigan Athletic, a 1-0 defeat at Leyton Orient, a 2-1 home win against Luton Town and an eye-catching 5-1 victory at Barnsley.
At the Lamex Stadium, Stevenage have taken two wins, a draw and a defeat from four games, scoring six and conceding five. They have kept just two clean sheets all season and failed to score in three of their nine outings, so consistency at both ends has been hard to find. Even so, home advantage and that thumping win at Barnsley suggest there are goals in this group.
How Plymouth Argyle go into the game
Plymouth Argyle arrive fourth in League One on 19 points from 11 games, having won six, drawn one and lost four while scoring 18 and conceding 14. The Pilgrims blow hot and cold: a 2-0 home defeat to Huddersfield Town last time out came after a 2-1 home win over AFC Wimbledon, a 2-0 win at Leyton Orient, a 1-0 home loss to Burton Albion and a 4-2 victory at Blackpool.
It is on the road that Plymouth have impressed, winning three of five away games, drawing one and losing one, with 10 goals scored and seven conceded. That away record is among the better ones in the division and stands in contrast to a patchy home return of three wins and three defeats from six. With only three clean sheets all season, though, they rarely keep things tight.

Recent meetings have gone the way of Plymouth Argyle, who won the most recent encounter 1-0 at home in March 2026 and edged a 2-1 win at the Lamex back in 2020. Stevenage’s best return from these five was a 1-1 draw on New Year’s Day 2026, while Plymouth also ran out 4-2 winners when the sides last met in the league in 2017. The Pilgrims hold the edge on this evidence.

Stevenage vs Plymouth Argyle score prediction
Plymouth’s superior quality and excellent away form should prove decisive, even if Stevenage make them work for it on home soil. The hosts have enough about them to score, but a defence that has leaked in most games looks there for the taking against the division’s fourth-placed side. We expect the Pilgrims to come through a lively night with a bit to spare. Score prediction: Stevenage 1-3 Plymouth Argyle.
