A place in the second round of the English League Cup will be on the line when Plymouth and Cheltenham meet at the Home Part Stadium on Wednesday night.
Plymouth have not had much luck in cup competitions in recent years. The Pilgrims were knocked out of the League Cup in the second round last season, while their FA Cup campaign ended in the fourth round.
Cheltenham don't have much to boast about when it comes to English cup competitions, either. They have been knocked out in the first round of both the League Cup and FA Cup in the last two seasons. But after beating Newport City 3-2 in their opening league game of the season last time out, Michael Flynn's men will fancy their chances of rewriting history on Wednesday.
Plymouth vs. Cheltenham Betting Tips: Both teams to score
Plymouth's defence has been all over the place in recent months. Wayne Rooney's side have kept just two clean sheets in their last nine games. Bets on btts - yes were won in seven of those games.
Cheltenham can't boast a good defence either. The visitors have failed to keep a clean sheet in four of their last five matches and conceded three or more goals in as many games. Both teams scored in just two of those games, but the last two meetings between Plymouth and Cheltanham produced goals at both ends.
- Best Tip: BTTS - Yes
- Plymouth vs Cheltenham prediction: 2-1

Plymouth team news
Plymouth didn't suffer any injuries in the defeat to Sheffield United in the Championship last time out, but head coach Wayne Rooney is expected to make wholesale changes to the side that was on the pitch from kickoff in that game.
Having been introduced shortly after half time in that game, Callum Wright and Ryan Hardie will be among those who could be promoted into the XI.
