Crystal Palace travel to take on Plymouth Argyle at Home Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Eagles will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The last time the two teams met at Plymouth Arg. was well over fifteen years ago, back in April 1989, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 2 winners in a Second Division match.
