Leyton Orient form and stats

Leyton Orient have collected 6 points from their League One home games so far after 2-0-2.

In their previous game, the manager Wellens led his Leyton to a defeat away at Fleetwood Town. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Brisbane Road. The first defeat after going unbeaten through three league matches. Defender James got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.43/10. James hit three key passes and won 1 of 3 duels.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Shrewsbury Town.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Leyton Orient have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 10 matches with the results: Won 6, drawn 2 and lost 2.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Leyton Orient as they have a new game in only four days, a League One match thankfully also at home. Reading are visiting.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Leyton Orient here at Brisbane Road in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (3 from 4 games). Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 7 goals have been conceded.

Lincoln City form and stats

1-2-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Lincoln City in their League One matches away.

Sørensen (2) scored in Lincoln's previous match, the home game against Cheltenham Town that ended 2-0. Those three points felt good as this team had gone three league games without winning. Sørensen got a match rating of 8.74 in that game, top player of the team. Sørensen scored two goals, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

The fixture before was the Carabao Cup-duel against West Ham United, a home loss (0-1). As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 6 similar matches played by Lincoln City in our archives, and the results are: 1 win for Lincoln City, 1 draw and 4 defeats.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Lincoln City manager Kennedy as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Peterborough United.

In the opposite end, Lincoln have conceded 8 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Data for the prior two meetings involving these two squads are: zero wins for Leyton Orient, two draws and zero wins for Lincoln City. Over 2,5 goals: zero times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
