Sturrock wants a dramatic improvement in his side's home form

Plymouth Argyle take on Coventry on Saturday knowing they desperately need to improve their home form to keep them out of the relegation zone.

The Pilgrims have picked up just three points at home this year.

"Three points would be a huge bonus to us if we were to get them," manager Paul Sturrock told BBC Radio Devon.

"Our away form has been excellent this season, but we have to turn around our home form - that's where we've let ourselves down dramatically."

He added: "The players have been very jovial this week because of the result we got last Saturday.

"We don't want to kick ourselves in the teeth so it's important we get a result on Saturday.

"We need three points on the board and have to hope some of the others slip up."

The Pilgrims take on 14th place Coventry at 1500 BST and travel to second-placed Birmingham on Easter Monday.
