Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Leyton Orient in 13th and Bolton Wanderers in 16th place.
It's no vacation for neither Leyton nor Bolton Wanderers as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Leyton Orient form and stats
The story so far in the League Two for Leyton Orient at their home stadium (The H2T Group Stadium) is 0 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Exeter City in the League Two last time out and are looking for a win here. Before that match, a win away at Stevenage.
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 have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won seven, drawn three and lost two.
Leyton are traveling soon after this match as the League Two match at Forest Green Rovers awaits in three days.
Leyton has scored 5 league goals at home this season, in 4 matches. Leyton have conceded 8 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Bolton Wanderers form and stats
Playing away, Bolton Wanderers have won 1 game, drawn 2 and suffered 1 defeat in the League Two this season. Two points from the last two away games for Wanderers, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
Wanderers had fun at their own home (The H2T Group Stadium) last time out, beating Bradford City 1-0. Nathan Delfouneso scored. A 1-1 draw at Cambridge United's stadium before that.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Bolton Wanderers playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were zero Wanderers wins, one draw and one defeat.
After this away game Wanderers return home for a League Two game against Mansfield Town. That game is only three sleeps after this.
