Football League World’s Chris Thorpe will be live from Home Park on Friday as Plymouth Argyle play host to AFC Wimbledon in Sky Bet League One, in what comes as another big match for the away side in their fight against relegation. 

Argyle boss Ryan Lowe brings his side into this game on a run of just one victory in their last five, with the club's hopes of making the play-offs all but distinguished, however they will be keen to extend their unbeaten run to three against Wimbledon.

For the Dons, Mark Robinson will be keen to see his side pick up another victory after they ground out a dramatic three points against their relegation rivals Northampton Town last weekend thanks to a goal from Joe Pigott and penalty save from Nik Tzanev to move them level with getting out of the drop zone at the time of writing.

A victory for the hosts could see them climb as high as 14th, whilst a win on the road for the visitors could see them move out of the relegation zone if other results go their way across the division.
