Salford City vs Leyton Orient Form Analysis

Both sides come into this having claimed victory in the league last time out. Salford have won nine matches after eighteen games played, scoring 24 goals and conceding 25.

As for Leyton Orient, The O's have hit form in recent weeks, winning four of their previous seven league matches. A commanding 0-4 away win at Burton is a real statement of intent from Richie Wellens' side, hoping to look past the play-off final despair and make amends this time around.

Salford vs Leyton Orient Players to Watch

Daniel Udoh (Salford City) Whilst Udoh has been on a dry patch in front of goal lately, the attacker has eight contributions in 12 league appearances and could come back to form here.

Aaron Connolly (Leyton Orient) It wasn't long ago that Connolly was kicking about in the Premier League. It looks like the Irishman is finding his feet again with eight goals already for the campaign.
