Leyton Orient continue their hunt for a first home league win of the season as they welcome Stevenage to Brisbane Road for today’s 3pm kick-off.
Orient versus Stevenage has become a familiar fixture over the last four or five years, and today sets up another interesting encounter between two sides who know plenty about each other.
Stevenage are a big, physical team and carry a real threat from set-pieces — an area that has caused Orient so many problems already this season. Richie Wellens’ side will need to be at their best, match Stevenage’s physicality and defend the key moments properly if they are to finally get that first home league victory on the board.
