Sturrock's side are just two points off the relegation places

Plymouth Argyle manager Paul Sturrock says his side have "important work" to do if they are to avoid relegation.

Argyle have a free weekend with the international break, but his side face a huge game away at Blackpool on Saturday, 4 April.

"We've got important work to be done, we want to make sure this team knows exactly what we're looking for over the next six games," Sturrock said.

The Plymouth boss feels his side need three wins from six games to stay up.

The Pilgrims' 2-1 defeat at Burnley left them just one place off the Championship's drop zone and was their third successive defeat.

As well as the trip to fellow strugglers Blackpool, Argyle host Barnsley, who are one point above the Pilgrims, on the final day of the season.

Plymouth also have to visit second-placed Birmingham City and QPR as they bid to stay in the Championship.
