Plymouth Argyle W vs Millwall Lionesses W: Match Preview
Plymouth Argyle W approach this FA Women's Cup tie with a mixed but high-scoring recent record, having won three of their last five in the competition and netting 14 goals in that span. Millwall Lionesses W, meanwhile, have followed a similar trajectory, recording three wins and two defeats in their last five FA Cup outings, including a 13-0 demolition of Margate W that skews their scoring average upwards. With both sides lacking up-to-date league form and standings, the stakes are set purely by cup progression and recent knockout performances.
From a statistical perspective, this fixture sets up as a high-goal environment. Plymouth's attack has been productive at home (seven goals vs Maidstone United FC W, two vs Gwalia United W), while Millwall's away form includes a 3-2 win at Denham United W but also a 1-0 defeat at Moneyfields W. Both teams' defensive records are patchy—Plymouth have conceded five at home to Exeter City W, while Millwall have failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last five. The absence of detailed shot, possession, or set-piece data limits deeper tactical analysis, but the headline numbers point to open play and defensive vulnerability on both sides.
The model projects a match with a strong likelihood of over 2.5 goals (69%) and both teams scoring (65%), with neither team holding a clear edge—home win probability is 34%, away 37%, and draw 29%. The likeliest outcome is a high-scoring draw or narrow margin either way, with the most plausible scorelines clustering around 2-2, 2-1, and 1-2.

Final Verdict
Plymouth Argyle W 2–2 Millwall Lionesses WThe model calls this as a 2-2 draw, driven by both teams' high recent goal rates—Plymouth at 2.8 and Millwall at 3.6 per match.
