Leyton Orient came from behind to secure all three points away to Oxford United at the weekend. Tyler Goodrham’s 20th-minute opener put the U’s ahead, but the O’s came out all guns blazing into the second-half and netted twice through Ollie O’Neil (51′) and George Moncur (77′). It was Leyton’s 14th league-win of the season and they have now won three of their last five outings. Though, Richie Wellen’s side lost to Burton Albion in their most recent home fixture, the O’s can draw inspiration from the fact that they have won four of their previous six matches at Brisbane Road.
Blackpool, on the other hand, thrashed third-placed Bolton on Saturday thanks to Jake Beesley’s brace and one goal each from Marvin Ekpiteta and Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel. It was their 15th league-win of the season, and the result extend the Seasiders’ unbeaten home run to seven league-games. Meanwhile, Neil Critchley’s side will need to improve on their travels if they are to secure a playoff place, having picked up just 16 points from a possible 48 away from home so far. on a positive note, the Tangerines have won four of their last five meetings with Leyton, with the last one ending in a goalless draw.
Leyton Orient probable starting lineup: Brynn, Galbraith, Beckles, Cooper, James, Pratley, El Mizouni, Forde, Moncur, O’Neill, Sotiriou
Blackpool probable starting lineup: Grimshaw, Pennington, Ekpiteta, Husband, Lawrence-Gabriel, Dembele, Norburn, Byers, Coulson, Joseph, Beesley
