๐ Form Guide
Leyton Orient
WDWWDD ๐
Leyton Orient go into this fixture following on from a 1-1 League Two draw against Swindon Town.
The only name on the scoresheet from Leyton Orient was Omar Beckles (12'). Jacob Wakeling (64') was the scorer for Swindon Town.
Leyton Orient havenโt been able to stop scoring goals, finding the back of the net in one hundred percent of their last 6 matches.
They have totted up the amount of 9 during that period and have conceded a total of 5. While that may be of interest, time will tell if that trend will be replicated here in this game.
Taking a look at their past results, Leyton Orient:
- are unbeaten in the league by Colchester United in their last 2 games.
- are unbeaten in their last 12 league matches at home. They have been so resilient here.

WDLLLL ๐
Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Stockport County in League Two competition, Colchester United will be hoping to turn things around here.
Kyle Wootton (37') was the scorer for Stockport County.
Clashes with Colchester United have had a tendency of being somewhat tedious encounters latterly with a dearth of scoring being a common characteristic. During their past six clashes, a paltry gross goal total of 6 has been recorded between both them and their opposition at an average goals per match of 1.
Going into this game, the form guide shows that Colchester United:
- haven't been beaten by Leyton Orient in games played away from home for the previous 5 matches in the league. A very good record, indeed.
- are without an away win for the past 2 matches in the league.
๐ค๐ค Head to head
Checking on their past head-to-head clashes going back to 26/12/2019 tells us that Leyton Orient have won 1 of these games and Colchester United 3, with the number of drawn matches standing at 2.
An aggregate of 16 goals were scored between the two sides in these games, with 7 for The O's and 9 coming from The U's. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.67.
The previous league match between these clubs was League Two match day 5 on 20/08/2022 when it ended Colchester United 1-3 Leyton Orient.
The match was refereed by Thomas Kirk.
๐ Team News: Leyton Orient

๐ Team News: Colchester United
Colchester United manager Ben Garner has multiple availability issues to deal with. Alan Judge (Knee Injury) and Tom Dallison (Ankle Injury) are those who canโt be considered.
โก Prediction
We envisage that Leyton Orient will likely score more than once against Colchester United, who may well find it hard scoring a goal of their own.
We can therefore see a decent 2-0 victory for Leyton Orient when the full-time whistle blows.
