Leeds United will be looking to carry their good form into the FA Cup as they host Plymouth Argyle in a fourth round clash on Saturday. The hosts have been particularly impressive at Elland Road and should have the upper hand over Ipswich, who often struggle on their travels.
Leeds United reached the fourth round of the FA Cup after claiming a 3-0 victory at Peterborough United last time out. Ethan Ampadu netted a brace while Patrick Bamford was also on target as they claimed a comfortable win.
That result is consistent with Leeds United's recent good form as they have now won their last five matches across all competitions. They head into Saturday’s clash off the back of a 1-0 victory over Preston North End in a midweek Championship fixture.
One of the most impressive things about Leeds United is their record at Elland Road which has become a fortress this season. Daniel Farke’s men are yet to taste defeat in front of their fans and have won 11 of their last 12 home matches across all competitions.
Plymouth Argyle claimed a 3-1 victory over League Two side Sutton United to secure a place in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Luke Cundle opened the scoring early in the contest while Ryan Hardie Morgan Whittaker completed the rout after the break.
That result is in keeping with Plymouth Argyle’s recent good form as they are unbeaten in their last four matches. Ian Foster’s men picked up a 3-1 victory over Cardiff City in a Championship fixture last weekend.
While Plymouth Argyle have undoubtedly shown some improvement lately, they remain unconvincing on their travels. The Pilgrims are without a single away win across all competitions this season, although three of their last four matches on the road have ended in draws.
