Plymouth – Stockport County

Plymouth’s hopes of climbing the table were dented at Home Park as Stockport County ran out 3‑1 winners, pushing the visitors up to eighth with nine points while the Pilgrims linger in sixth with ten. The result widened the gap between the two clubs in their head‑to‑head this season – Stockport now hold the sole victory after a 0‑0 stalemate last term. Despite Plymouth’s modest +2 goal difference, Stockport’s prolific attack, now boasting 16 goals, proved decisive against a side that has conceded eight. The three points keep Stockport within reach of the top‑seven places, while Plymouth will need to bounce back quickly to stay in the promotion race.
