Match Facts

Stoke City are unbeaten across their prior 19 home league games against Plymouth Argyle (W13 D6), keeping 11 clean sheets across that time. That run also includes the Potters’ biggest ever EFL victory in December 1960, a 9-0 win.
After winning the reverse fixture 2-1 back in December, Plymouth Argyle will be looking to claim a first ever league double over Stoke City in the EFL.
Stoke City have won just two of their last 14 home league games (D6 L6), a run during which the Potters have failed to score in eight separate matches.
So far this season, Plymouth Argyle have won just three of their 21 away league games (D7 L11), though each of those victories have come across their last seven such matches whilst also keeping a clean sheet.
Since Steven Schumacher’s first league game in charge of Stoke City on 23rd December - after departing Plymouth Argyle - the Potters (24) have won just two more points than the Pilgrims (22) in the Championship, ranking them 17th and 19th in the division in that time.
