Leyton Orient vs Bristol Rovers Match Analysis & Prediction
03/12/2024 10:45 pm
Relegation-threaten Leyton Orient will play host to Bristol Rovers at Gaughan Group Stadium on Tuesday in League One.
Leyton are currently in 21st position with 15 points after 16 matches, while Bristol Rovers are six points from the playoff spots and occupy 14th place after picking up 21 points from their 17 games so far.
Richie Wellens’ Leyton have struggled in League One this season and are one point behind Crawley Town, who are 20th – the last spot above the relegation zone.
Last time out, Leyton faced National League Oldham Athletic in the FA Cup and won 2-1 thanks in no small part to the heroic of Tottenham Hotspur loanee goalkeeper Josh Keeley, who scored an equalsier in the ninth minute of stoppage time to take the game beyond 90 minutes.
From there, Daniel Agyel managed to find a 121st-minute winner to lead his team into the third round, where the prospect of drawing a major Premier League side awaits.
Meanwhile, Bristol Rovers are in mid-table and have lost just once in their last four League One matches, but have only won once in their last five.
In their most recent game, Rovers won on penalties away to Barnsley in the FA Cup after 120 minutes produced no goals for either side.
If Matt Taylor’s side harbour any hopes of climbing the League One table, they need to address issues at both ends of the pitch and will hope to show some improvement against Tuesday’s relegation-threatened opponents.
Leyton Orient vs. Bristol Rovers Head to head
In the previous 34 meetings between these two teams, Leyton have claimed 13 victories while Bristol have won 14, and they have drawn in seven.
