Leicester City's hopes of making light work of League One are proving misplaced as they struggle to get going.
Russell Martin's Foxes find themselves in the bottom four rather than the top two and without a win in four games in all competitions.
They are piling up chances but hardly taking any and that could ensure another tough night against a Plymouth Argyle side who will knuckle down on a famous stage and try to be hard to beat.

Bet Builder - Draw or Plymouth Double Chance, Over 5 Leicester Corners, Over 4 Plymouth Corners @ 7/1
Leicester City v Plymouth Argyle Prediction
Best Bet: Under 2.5 Goals @ 6/5
Leicester's players, staff and fans were given a fresh reminder how tough this division is after last weekend's 0-0 draw at MK Dons.
Leicester's big reputation doesn't count for anything against teams rolling up their sleeves against the former Premier League winners, and Martin's men are finding it hard in League One.
Martin has struggled to bring in strikers in the summer and they certainly look light in attack - they had 24 shots in Milton Keynes and failed to take any.
Three of Leicester's five games this season and three of Plymouth's have copped for under 2.5 goals backers, a bet that looks overpriced on Tuesday.
Alternative Bet: Draw @ 13/5
If it is a low-scoring game at the King Power, then that does increase the possibility of the game ending in a draw.
Leicester have failed to win four in a row and Argyle's sole away trip so far this season ended in a 1-1 draw at Wycombe.
Leicester City v Plymouth Argyle Bet Builder Tip
Draw or Plymouth Double Chance
Over 5 Leicester Corners
Over 4 Plymouth Corners
Pays @ 7/1
While Leicester are struggling to get going in attack, teams are going to run them close.
That's what has happened over the past few weeks and could well happen again against Tom Cleverley's Green Army, who should not be discounted.
Make the Draw or Plymouth Double Chance the first leg of your King Power Bet Builder.
Leicester's barrage of attacks at Milton Keynes on Saturday may not have yielded a goal, but it did see them rack up nine corners.
At home they should be able to acquire six or more corners.
Plymouth, meanwhile, are averaging six corners a game and have only once dipped under five corners in a game. They are a positive side when they get chances, and if this opens up, they can clock up at least five of their own.
