Plymouth Argyle play host to Exeter City in the Devon derby on Monday evening looking to further strengthen their position at the top of the League One standings. At a time when the home side hold a seven-point lead in the automatic promotion spots, Exeter sit in seventh place, four points adrift of the playoffs
Given the teams that continue to chase them down, Plymouth will only be taking one match at a time as they bid to extend their current 12-match unbeaten streak. Nevertheless, there is also growing confidence within Steven Schumacher’s squad that they can collect points in different ways after that run of games without defeat came under threat last time out.
Plymouth Argyle vs Exeter City Prediction

Having come through their last two matches unbeaten, Exeter will fancy their chances of causing a surprise against the form side in the entire EFL. However, we cannot back against Plymouth, even if they may have to work hard to eventually get over the line against their South West rivals.
