Prediction: 1-1
Morecambe
Leyton Orient will be looking to extend their winning run in the League Two to three games when they host Morecambe at their Brisbane Road on Matchday 24. Leyton regained a much-needed confidence, but the game against Morecambe will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. In-form attacker Danny Johnson will be the man to watch in the home team. The Shrimps, on the other hand, are on a four-game winning run in the League Two.
Morecambe suffered an expected 4-0 loss to Chelsea in the FA Cup at the weekend, meaning that they will be fully focused on the promotion chase in the remainder of the season. Given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Morecambe boss Derek Adams rested several first-team regulars in the Stamford Bridge clash, but he is likely to field the best possible side against Leyton.
