We said: Plymouth Argyle 2-1 Charlton Athletic
The visitors have got a lot of fortunate bounces in recent matches but have not been at their best on the road this season, with their only significant victory coming at Sunderland, while their other positive away outcomes were versus weaker opponents.
Even though the results have not been there as often as they would have liked lately, the Pilgrims seem to be close to turning the corner, and we expect them to have a little more quality than their opponents on Saturday.
