Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-0
Leyton Orient
After failing to shock Peterborough at Weston Homes Stadium, Stevenage will be aiming to stay in the playoffs berth when they take on Leyton Orient on Saturday afternoon. The Boro have been producing fine displays at home of late, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Leyton. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, Wales midfielder Louis Thompson should be recalled to the starting XI.
The O’s, on the other hand, failed to win the previous three league matches. As Stevenage are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Greater London with their hands empty. In the first half of the season the Boro defeated the O’s 3-0, which goes in favour of our earlier prediction.
