CAN ORIENT sink the Saints and lay to rest at last a recent run of bad results?
Visitors Southampton are widely tipped to seize the second automatic promotion place in League One, this season.
Orient have their own designs on the play-offs and earned a draw at St Mary’s Stadium in the last meeting between these sides.
But O’s boss Russell Slade will be without defender Ben Chorley for this clash, who has a thigh injury.
Defensive midfielder Matt Spring serves the last game of his three-match ban.
With creeping nerves hopefully settled by Tuesday night’s win over Plymouth, Orient will want to grab all three points at the Matchroom Stadium, tomorrow.
But Slade has acknowledged the attacking talents of Nigel Adkin’s team could be hard to contain.
The sportsdesk predicts a 4-2 win for the O’s.
