Prediction: 1-1
Leyton Orient
Northampton Town play host to Leyton Orient at their Sixfields Stadium on day 15 of the 2023/2024 League One campaign. The Cobblers aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Shrewsbury Town and Bolton Wanderers, but they face a tough challenge against the O’s. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the midweek encounter.
Leyton, meanwhile, aim to extend their unbeaten run to four games. The two teams seem to be evenly matched at the moment and, taking everything into account, the share of spoils is on the cards at Sixfields Stadium. In their last meeting in the English fourth tier Northampton defeated Leyton Orient 1-0 and we expected yet another low-scoring affair on Tuesday evening. As for the away team, experienced midfielder George Moncur is pushing for a recall to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a 1-1 draw with Barnsley.
