Best Tip: Plymouth to win

Having examined the bookmakers' odds and collated stats regarding both sides ahead of this League Cup match, a bet on win / draw / win for Plymouth to win in front of their own fans is what we would suggest. We predict they'll have too much for Exeter, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have the pedigree to do so. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Plymouth winning is the bet come Monday night.
