Plymouth Arg. prepare to entertain Barnsley at Home Park on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Pilgrims are clearly on top, having won 20 and lost only 5 of the 33 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Home Park was less than a year ago, in May 2009, with Barnsley inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Pilgrims in a Championship match.
