Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Wycombe
Leyton Orient will look to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Charlton Athletic when they take on Wycombe on Matchday 25. The O’s quickly bounced back from a 3-2 loss to Bolton, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence. Leyton aim to climb to the top half of the table and they are surely capable of beating the Chairboys in front of home fans. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Wycombe, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Exeter. As Wycombe will go for a win in Friday’s encounter as well, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. In their last meeting in the English third tier Wycombe defeated Leyton 3-2, which is yet another reason why this betting option should be considered. All Brandon Hanlan, Jason McCarthy, and Freddie Potts remain on the sidelines with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Sam Vokes):
Sam Vokes began his professional career at Bournemouth and after scoring 16 goals in 54 appearances for the Cherries, he moved to Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2008. He signed a four-year deal contract with the Wolves, but was quickly sent on loan to Leeds United. After spending enjoying loan stints with Bristol City, Sheffield United, Norwich City, Burnley and Brighton, he signed a permanent contract with the Clarets for a fee of £350k.
Sam Vokes impressed in the 2013/2014 Championship campaign, with the Wales international scoring 20 goals in the process. He was struggling with injuries in the 2014/2015 Premier League campaign and, as a result, he failed to find the net for Burnley in 15 appearances in the English top flight. Vokes found his best form in the 2015/2016 season and thanks to his 15 goals the Clarets returned to the English elite division.
Sam Vokes was born and raised in England, but his grandfather was born in Wales and, as a result, he made his debut for the Dragons on 28 May, 2008 in a 1-0 win over Iceland. Vokes helped Wales reach the Euro 2016 semi-finals, scoring in the 3-1 quarter-final win over Belgium.
Highlighted Team (Leyton Orient):
Leyton Orient are the League Two side that welcome their rivals at Brisbane Road. The stadium, which was built and opened in 1937, can hold up to 9,271 people. When playing at Brisbane Road, the O’s wear red shirts and red shorts, while the colour of their away kit is blue.
Southend United are regarded as the club’s main rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the A13 derby. Leyton Orient have the rivalries with the likes of West Ham United, Millwall, Brentford, Dag & Red, and Barnet as well. The O’s registered their biggest win on November 12, 1955 as they crushed Crystal Palace 8-0.
