Russell Slade names the same team that earned a draw on Saturday for tonight’s home clash with AFC Bournemouth.
Captain Stephen Dawson is not judged fit enough to return to the midfield, meaning Matt Spring and Huddersfield Town loanee Tom Clarke continue in the middle of the park.
Saturday’s goal scorer Jimmy Smith keeps his place while new signing Kevin Lisbie partners David Mooney up front again.
At the back, Ben Alnwick gets his first start at Brisbane Road between the sticks for the O’s, while Ben Chorley is once again partnered in defence with Terrell Forbes, with Scott Cuthbert filling in at right back in place of Elliot Omozusi, who is fit enough for the subs bench.
For the visitors, former O’s Adam Barrett and Stephen Purches are given starts, while Shaun Cooper is on the bench.
Orient: Alnwick; Cuthbert, Chorley, Forbes, Daniels; Smith, Clarke, Spring, Cox; Mooney, Lisbie.
Subs: Omozusi, Butcher, McSweeney, Porter, Laird.
AFC Bournemouth: Flahavan; Byrne, Barrett, Pugh, Arter, Thomas, Gregory, Purches, Molesley, Malone, Baudry.
Subs: Jalal, Cooper, Doble, Cummings, Fletcher.
