Prediction
In our opinion, Wigan Athletic have it within them to score against this Leyton Orient team, however that possibly wonโt quite prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.
Weโre predicting both teams to score in a 2-1 win for Leyton Orient at full-time. There looks to be little in this one.
