Plymouth Argyle boss outlines Aaron Collins threat and what he's expecting from Bristol Rovers

Plymouth Argyle manager Steven Schumacher has highlighted the threat posed by Aaron Collins as he’s fully aware of Bristol Rovers’ desire, both personal and professional, to upset the Pilgrims' march to League One promotion.

Plymouth can take a significant step towards the Championship with victory at Home Park tonight but will up against a familiar foe in Rovers, with the sides having met three times already this season - with two draws and a win for Schumacher's side at the Mem in the EFL Trophy.

Although the Gas are in 15th, without threat of relegation and their play-off aspirations having petered out long ago, there is plenty at stake for Joey Barton given the disdain he and his staff hold for their opponents in green, dating back to academy days in Liverpool and only enhanced by the encounters between the sides this term.
