The Pilgrims of Plymouth Argyle aim to extend a strong mid-season run, having lost just once in their last six matches across all competitions and securing four consecutive wins in league play — most recently a hard-earned 1-0 victory over Luton Town last weekend that boosted confidence under Tom Cleverley’s management.

Mansfield arrive in decent form too — unbeaten in their last few outings and boasting multiple wins in recent weeks — meaning this clash could be tighter than the league table suggests.

Exeter City’s League One campaign continues with an away tie at Reading. The Grecians have shown resilience this season in the third tier, and tonight’s match is crucial in their pursuit of mid-table security. Reading, for their part, sit slightly above Exeter in the table and will look to capitalise on home advantage.

Statistical previews point to a relatively tight contest with moderate scoring, with odds slightly favouring Reading at home but Exeter capable of causing an upset, especially if the Grecians can tighten up defensively.

Torquay United return to action in the National League South, hosting Farnborough at Plainmoor. United are pushing for a strong league position in the second half of the campaign and will be eager to build momentum with a midweek victory.
