Plymouth Arg. pack their bags to visit Colchester United at Weston Homes Community Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Pilgrims will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 11 and win only 3 of the 18 games.
The previous match played between the two at Weston Homes Community Stadium was within the last three years, in November 2007, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Championship match.
