Bristol City vs Plymouth Argyle Match Analysis & Prediction
30/11/2024 6:00 pm
Bristol City will play host to Plymouth Argyle at Ashton Gate Stadium on Saturday looking to end a run of two straight defeats.
At a time when the Robins sit in 12th position in the Championship table, the Pilgrims are down in 20th after their own run of poor form.
An eight-game unbeaten run has been followed by three defeats in four matches, leaving the Robins back down in mid-table.
Perhaps most frustratingly for manager Liam Manning, the defeats in question have come by one-goal margins against three of the top five in Sheffield United, Burnley and Watford.
On the flip side, ending Norwich City’s extended unbeaten run at Carrow Road should be regarded as a top achievement, one that has ultimately kept Bristol City within five points of the playoffs.
Nevertheless, just two wins have been recorded in eight matches at Ashton Gate Stadium, something that must improve if they wish to stay in contention.
Staying on the topic of games at Carrow Road, Wayne Rooney claimed that the club’s U18 players could have defended better than his Plymouth side did earlier this week.
Plymouth Argyle suffered a 6-1 defeat, conceding twice in the opening 17 minutes and four times during 31 second-half minutes.
That brought an end to a three-game unbeaten run in the Championship, that run having been necessary to keep Plymouth above the relegation zone.

Lewis Gibson could feature in the Plymouth defence if he is passed fit. The 24-year-old was named on the substitutes’ bench in midweek despite Rooney having little intention of using him.
