The League Two season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Leyton Orient and Cheltenham Town promises to be an interesting one.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Leyton Orient form and stats

A League Two draw at home so far for Leyton Orient. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 8 draws and 6 defeats from 19 matches.

The spoils were shared in Leyton's previous game, also at home. Visiting Mansfield Town (placed 19th) travelled back with a draw after a 2-2 scoreline. Before that, Leyton had a Carabao Cup home game versus Plymouth Argyle which ended with a victory 3-2.

Late drama in the game against Mansfield Town as Leyton Orient were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until Ruel Sotiriou popped out and made it level in the 90th minute.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the EFL Trophy game versus AFC Wimbledon in only three days. This game is also played here at The H2T Group Stadium.

Early season league goal statistics from Leyton Orient's 1 home game: 2 goals, 2 conceded.

Cheltenham Town form and stats

Only one away game in the League Two so far for Cheltenham Town and it resulted in three points. Last season the statistics for their away games were 6 victories, 8 draws and 4 losses from 18 travels.

Cheltenham play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-0 victory visiting Tranmere Rovers (placed 20th). A 1-3 defeat away at Millwall before that.

It was a convincing performance from Cheltenham when Tranmere Rovers were beaten. The team "killed" the match in the first half leading 3-0 and the second half was comfortable. Charlie Raglan and Andy Williams scored their goals.

A quick return to home after this game, as Cheltenham are hosting Plymouth Argyle in the EFL Trophy only three days away.

3 goals so far away for Cheltenham Town, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 0. All from 1 league match away.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Leyton Orient, one draw and five wins for Cheltenham Town. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: seven games.
