Wimbledon's home league form has been solid, with wins over Wigan and Doncaster and draws against Reading and MK Dons. Away from home in the league, though, they've lost heavily at Huddersfield (0-3) and Burton (1-4), with their only away win coming at Bromley (2-0).

Wimbledon's away form has been shaky this season, which matters given they're on the road here against a Plymouth side playing well.

Comparative Team Statistics: Plymouth vs AFC Wimbledon

Head-to-head

These two go back a long way, with plenty of tight and high-scoring meetings over the years, including a 4-4 and a 3-3 draw in past encounters.

The last two league meetings were both won by the away side: Plymouth won 3-1 at Wimbledon last season, while Wimbledon won 2-1 at Plymouth the season before that.

There's no strong pattern of home dominance in this fixture historically, even though Wimbledon's away form has dipped more recently.

Where they sit in League One

Plymouth are third with 13 points from seven games, having won four, drawn one and lost two, scoring 14 and conceding 10.

Wimbledon are seventh with 11 points from the same number of games, winning three, drawing two and losing two, but with a much lower goal tally of five for and seven against.

Plymouth have the better points return and are scoring far more freely, though the gap in games played and results is tighter than the goal difference suggests.

Players to watch

Plymouth have goals spread across the squad, with A. Pepple and O. Irow both on three league goals this season, Irow doing it in just five appearances.

Wimbledon's main scoring threat has been M. Hippolyte, also on three goals in seven games, though he's picked up three yellow cards in that time, which is worth keeping an eye on.

How this could play out

Plymouth's attack has been productive both home and away recently, and they've shown they can find the net even when things aren't going their way, as the wins at Doncaster and Blackpool show.

Wimbledon's away defensive record this season raises questions about how they'll cope with a Plymouth side scoring regularly at home. Their own away goals return has been thin too, which doesn't help their cause.
