Prediction: 1-1
Leyton Orient
Bradford City play host to Leyton Orient at their Valley Parade in what is expected to be a close League Two match. The Bantams have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team sharing the spoils with Rochdale, beating Walsall, while losing to Crawley Town. Andy Cook has found his goal-scoring touch of late, meaning that the opposition defenders should have the 31-year-old at bay.
The O’s, on the other hand, have been struggling to find their best form of late. Leyton failed to find the net in the previous five league fixtures, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Bradford’s party at Valley Parade. Kenny Jackett could opt to make changes to the starting XI, with all Drinan, Kyprianou, and Young pushing for a start. You should know that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of the previous five meetings between the two teams.
Highlighted Player (Craig Clay):
After spending his youth career at Chesterfield, Craig Clay continued wearing the Spireites jersey at senior level. The English midfielder made 27 appearances for Chesterfield in the league before signing a deal with York City in the 2013/2014 season.
It has to be noted that he played for the likes of Barrow and Alfreton Town on loan as well before signing the deal with the Minstermen. Born in Nottingham, England on May 5, 1992, Craig Clay was part of Halifax Town, Worksop Town, Grimsby Town, and Motherwell squad as well in the past. Nowadays, the 180-cm tall midfielder plays for Leyton Orient in the League Two, the English fourth tier.
He made his League Two debut with the O’s on August 3, 2019, in a 1-0 win over Cheltenham Town. Craig Clay has one cap with the England C national team as he represented the Three Lions in a 2-0 win over the Ukraine U20 team on March 22, 2016.
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.
Speaking of the club’s heaviest defeat, Leyton Orient were beaten by Aston Villa 8-0 in the FA Cup round 4 on January 30, 1929. Leyton Orient have four London Challenge Cup trophies (1912, 1972, 1973, and 1993), with the team clinching the Dubonnet Cup title in 1911.
