by Matthew Newman in Championship Predictions
A west country derby in the Championship on Saturday as struggling Plymouth make the trip up the M5 to take on Bristol City. The Robins are sat 12th in the Championship while the Pilgrims are 20th. Does that make for a match with an easy home win prediction or is it tougher than that?
City has only won two of their eight matches at Ashton Gate so far this season. Half of their home matches have ended up in a stalemate, suffering their first two home defeats of the season in their most recent pair.
Those came against Sheffield United and Burnley so there was no disgrace in those defeats. They won 2-0 in Norwich on November 9, the same side who gave Plymouth a 6-1 thrashing on Tuesday night.
Things were rough for Plymouth prior to that heavy defeat at Norwich, They had already beaten 5-0 in Cardiff, 4-0 against Sheffield Wednesday and 3-0 by Leeds on their travels for the worst away record in the division. Bristol is at least a relatively local away game for them, but they need a massive improvement on their record for a positive result.

Our Bristol City vs Plymouth Prediction
Plymouth are not helped by their position on the Devon/Cornwall border. It does make the Home Park a tough place to go for visitors but it makes for some very long road trips. Bristol is a closer game for them which might be a small help to them.
In five of their last six away games Plymouth have been behind within 26 minutes and while City have not been quick starters this season, this is the perfect opportunity for them to grab an early goal. Our Bristol City vs Plymouth prediction is a goal before 27:00.
