Watford vs Plymouth Argyle Prediction, Preview & Betting Tips

Watford are firm favourites to beat Plymouth Argyle in this contest at Vicarage Road, as the Hornets are 10th in the standings, just five points off the play-off places, while Argyle sit bottom with 33 points from 38 games.

Tom Cleverley’s side have a solid home record, as they’ve picked up 35 points from 19 games at Vicarage Road, winning 11, drawing two and losing six while scoring 24 and conceding 19.

On the other hand, Plymouth’s away record is nothing short of abysmal, as it is the worst record in the Championship, having earned just eight points in 19 games away from Home Park, winning one, drawing five and losing 13 while scoring just eight times and leaking 43 goals.

Three of the last four meetings between these two sides have resulted in draws, with the other match being a 2-0 League Cup win for Watford earlier on in the season, a result that we can see being replicated here.

Prediction: Watford 2-0 Plymouth Argyle

Watford vs Plymouth Argyle Prediction & Preview

Watford hosts Plymouth Argyle at Vicarage Road in what is expected to be a one-sided contest between tenth and 24th-places in the Championship.

Date: 29/03/2025

Location: Vicarage Road

Time: 12:30pm

The last league meeting between these two sides back on 22nd November resulted in a 2-2 draw at Home Park as Andre Gray fired in the second of his brace in the 96th-minute to earn Argyle a point after goals from Vakoun Issouf Bayo and Ryan Porteous had given the Hornets a 2-1 lead.

When Watford and Plymouth faced off in the Second Round of the League Cup on 27th August, the Hornets ran out as 2-0 victors thanks to a brace from Mileta Rajovic.

Tom Cleverley recently became the first Watford manager since Javi Gracia to last more than a year at the club. The ex-Manchester United midfielder currently sees his side sit 10th in the table, just five points off the play-off places with 52 points from 38 matches. This looks like a season of improvement for the Hornets, as they accumulated 56 points from 46 games last campaign.

On the other hand, Plymouth Argyle sit 24th in the Championship with 33 points from 38 games and have been under the management of two different managers this season, with Wayne Rooney departing Home Park on 30th December having left the club sitting bottom of the table, seeing him depart the Mariners with just five wins from 25 matches, while drawing six and losing 14 times.

Since Miron Muslic’s arrival, Plymouth have fared slightly better during his 15 games in charge, winning four, drawing four and losing seven while scoring 16 times and conceding 26.
