History of the Watford v Plymouth Argyle fixture

Watford prepare to entertain Plymouth Argyle at Vicarage Road Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 14 of the 31 previous games, with the Hornets winning just 11.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vicarage Road Stadium was less than a year ago, in December 2007, with Plymouth Arg. inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Hornets in a Championship match.
