Prediction: 0-1
Leyton Orient
Bristol Rovers play host to Leyton Orient at their Memorial Stadium on day 8 of the new League Two campaign. The Pirates made a slow start to the season, with the team collecting only seven points from possible 21. Bristol Rovers failed to impress in a 1-0 loss at Hartlepool, and seeing that experienced forward Leon Clarke limped off with injury, home win should not be considered. Leyton Orient, on the other hand, did well to crush Oldham Athletic 4-0 in their last league match.
The O’s are eyeing a place in top three, and they should take advantage of Bristol Rovers’ anything but brilliant start to the season. A man to watch in the away team will be Harry Smith, who scored four goals in total in the previous three league fixtures. The 26-year-old returns to the starting XI after he was rested in the EFL Trophy win over Southampton U21.

Mark Little is a right back who plays for Bristol City. Little started his youth career at Wolverhampton Wonderers and he made 27 appearances for the first team as well. He made his Wolves debut on 23 August, 2006 in the League Cup clash against Chesterfield.

The English footballer, who was born on 20 August, 1988 made 23 appearances for Bristol City in the 2015/2016 Championship campaign and he scored one goal for the club. His main position is right back, but he is capable of playing as midfielder as well.
