Overview
- The match is set for Saturday at 12:30pm at Home Park in Plymouth, marking the first league derby there since 2022.
- Devon and Cornwall Police say a comprehensive plan will bring a heightened presence across the city, with arrests and possible banning orders for anti-social or alcohol-fueled offenses.
- Exeter’s 1,770 away tickets are sold out, with visiting fans in Blocks 21–23 of the Kawasaki Barn Park Stand and turnstiles opening about 90 minutes before kick-off; the club will open early so supporters can buy refreshments inside.
- Police say there are no designated away pubs in the city and urge travelling fans to head straight to the stadium, which is about a 15–20 minute walk from Plymouth railway station.
- Both teams enter with fresh momentum, as Exeter ended a 15-match winless run with a 3–0 win over Doncaster and Plymouth beat Barnsley 3–0 in their push toward the play-offs.
