Match Facts

Plymouth Argyle have won just one of their last nine league games against Rotherham United (D2 L6), a 2-1 win in April 2018.
After a 17-game winless league run in away games against Plymouth between 1970 and 2005, Rotherham have won three of their last four at Home Park (L1).
Plymouth are unbeaten in their last four home league games (W3 D1) and could win three successive home Championship matches for the first time since October 2008 under Paul Sturrock.
Rotherham have failed to score in 19 of their away league games since the start of last season, more than any other Championship side.
Plymouth’s Finn Azaz has been involved in four goals in his last four league games at Home Park (2 goals, 2 assists), one more than his first six league games there this season (2 goals, 1 assist).
