Leyton Orient have played three League Two home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. The Leyton Orient manager R. Embleton might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
The Leyton goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 180 minutes without conceding a goal in the League Two.
A good away victory last time out for Leyton, who won 2-0 against Stevenage (placed 20th). Before that match, a win away at Tranmere Rovers.
