LAST MEETING: Oldham 1 Leyton Orient 1 (League One 20-12-2009)
LAST TIME AT BRISBANE ROAD: Leyton Orient 1 Oldham 0 (League One 03-11-2007)
HEAD TO HEAD: Leyton Orient 14 wins, Oldham 21 wins, and 14 draws.
FORM: Oldham have struggled for wins recently. But Latics legend Joe Royle has just returned to the club for his second spell at the helm and they remain a decent bet for the play-offs.
DANGER MAN: Local youngster Chris Taylor is dangerous down the flanks, and 18-goal striker Lee Hughes is a formidable target man for the young winger.
FUN FACT: In the 1991/92 season under Joe Royle, Oldham were heading up to what was to be the new Premiership division. In January 92 they took on Orient in the FA Cup as finalists of the previous year's competition. Orient scored four and won 4-2 as the high-fliers stumbled.
PREDICTION: 3-1. Everything to come together at last for improving Orient at home.
