[Football- England 'Championship'] 17.2/ 13:30 Plymouth- Leeds
Despite sitting mid-table in 15th, Plymouth are one of the highest scoring teams in the Championship, with 51 goals. In terms of goals scored, only 5 teams have scored more than them (and all of these teams are in 7th or higher). They also concede a lot; they've let in 52 goals this season so far, which again, is one of the highest in the league. A side that's perfectly capable of scoring, but also tends to leak goals, ideal for this pick.
Leeds are ultimately the better team in this matchup and have won 7 league games in a row. They're also very high scoring, and I reckon they'll get at least 2 here. Defensively, they're the 2nd best in the league, having only conceded 26 in 32 games, but being the away team, and considering Plymouth's "14/15" stat below, I don't think they'll keep a clean sheet here.
It's worth mentioning that their past two meetings ended 1-1 after 90 mins, but these were FA cup and a subsequent replay, and cup games tend to be tighter defensively, so that doesn't concern me.
Some other notable stats: BTTS has hit in 8 of Plymouth's last 9 games. Plymouth have scored in 14/15 home games in the league. BTTS has hit in the last 3 H2H meetings.
