Leeds United visit the Home Park on Tuesday to face Plymouth Argyle in their fourth round FA Cup replay as the sides compete to reach the round of 16.
In their earlier clash on 27 January, Leeds and Plymouth drew 1-1 at Elland Road. Jaidon Anthony put the Whites in front after 31 minutes, but Adam Randall equalized for the Pilgrims midway through the second half.
Leeds were the better side in the game, with 18 shots, of which eight were on target, and they held 67% possession too, but weren’t clinical enough to make their dominance count.
At the weekend, Daniel Farke’s side overcame Bristol City 1-0 in the Championship, courtesy of a second-half goal from Wilfried Gnonto. The victory will add some momentum under their belt ahead of their FA Cup decider.
Interestingly, Plymouth also emerged 1-0 victors last Saturday, with Morgan Whittaker scoring the only goal of the game in the 18th minute to down Swansea City.
However, the sides are miles apart on the Championship table, with Leeds in third place with 60 points from 30 games, whereas Plymouth are down in 15th with 36 points from 29 games.
