Prediction

  • A 91st-minute goal from Joe Edwards did little to change the outcome last Saturday as Plymouth were beaten 3-2 on the road by fellow Championship new boys Ipswich. The Pilgrims have now won just one of their last six league games, but remain six points clear of the relegation zone.
  • Middlesbrough failed to produce a response to goals from Michael Rose and Mehdi Leris last weekend as they were beaten 2-0 by an in-form Stoke side on home soil. Michael Carrick will be hoping that defeat proves to be little more than a blip after his side stormed into the top half with a six-game winning streak.
