Prediction: 2-1
Northampton
Leyton Orient play host to Northampton Town at their Brisbane Road on day 36 of the current League One campaign. Despite being on a four-game losing run in the English third tier, the O’s are still seen as hot favourites to win Saturday’s clash. Manager Richie Wellens is expected to shuffle his pack following a 1-0 loss to Rotherham United, with defender Jack Currie returning from suspension. Midfielder Theodore Archibald, though, remains on the sidelines with injury.
The Cobblers, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back draws with Exeter and Stockport. Northampton are eager to escape the danger zone, but given Leyton’s desire to stay in the playoffs race, home win should be considered. In their last meeting at Brisbane Road, Leyton Orient defeated Northampton Town 4-3 and yet another high-scoring affair is on the cards. The likes of Eyoma, Guthrie, Mbete, Morton, and Sowerby remain on the sidelines with injuries for the away team.
