There is optimism in Leyton Orient at this point, with their 1st spot in the League Two table and anticipating the visit of Sutton United (who are placed 16th).
- Leyton Orient have the fewest conceded goals (12) in League Two
- Sutton United have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Sutton United have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 12-8-21 (win-draw-loss) from 41 matches.
This looks to be an engrossing game with lots of spark and bustle as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Let's start!
