Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-1
Leyton Orient
Following a 1-1 draw with Bristol Rovers, Cheltenham Town will look to return to winning ways in the League One when they take on Leyton Orient on Saturday afternoon. The Robins have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team remaining in the relegation zone and, no doubt, they are desperate to move away from the bottom four. Owen Bevan limped off with injury in the last league match, with fellow Wales defender Benjamin Williams likely to step up.
The O’s, on the other hand, are on an eight-game winless run in the League One and given the importance of Saturday’s clash for Cheltenham Town, we are tempted to place our bets on the rock-bottom side. To make things even worse for the visiting team, defender Brandon Cooper is banned for the match following his sending-off in a 3-0 loss to Derby County.
Highlighted Team (Cheltenham):
Founded in 1887 by a local teacher Albert Close White, Cheltenham Town are an English club that compete in League Two. The Robins wear white jerseys with red stripes and white shorts when playing at home, while sky blue is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Cheltenham Town clinched the FA Trophy in 1998, with the team defeating Southport 1-0 in the title game. The match was played at Wembley Stadium in front of 26,837 spectators, with John Eaton scoring the only goal of the match. The Robins have won Leamington Hospital Cup, Midland Floodlit Cup, Gloucestershire Senior Cup, Cheltenham League and Gloucestershire Senior Amateur North Challenge Cup as well.
The likes of Gloucester City and Hereford are seen as Cheltenham’s traditional rivals, while, in more recent years, Forest Green Rovers have been the club’s main rivals. A 12-0 win over Chippenham Rovers (November 2, 1935), with the team suffering their biggest defeat against Tydfil (1-10) on March 8, 1952.
