Seeking to make it three home wins on the bounce, Plymouth Argyle welcome Rotherham United to Home Park in round 22 of the EFL Championship on Saturday.
Leam Richardson’s men, on the other hand, will be looking to end their nine-game winless run and leave the bottom of the league standings.
Despite going a man down inside the opening half-hour, Plymouth Argyle held firm to see out a goalless draw away to Queens Park Rangers on Wednesday.
However, Steven Schumacher’s side have now failed to win three of their last four matches and are without an away win across all competitions this season.
With 23 points from 18 matches, Plymouth Argyle are currently 18th in the EFL Championship table, just three points above the drop zone.
Meanwhile, Rotherham United failed to stop the rot in midweek when they suffered a 2-0 home defeat against West Bromwich Albion.
Richardson’s men have now gone nine straight matches without a win, losing five and claiming four draws since a 2-0 victory over Coventry City on October 15.
With just 13 points from 24 matches, Rotherham United are currently rooted to the bottom of the league table, below 23rd-placed Sheffield Wednesday on goal difference.
