Tamworth and Leyton Orient Current Form and Standings

Tamworth are off to a flying start in the National League, as they occupy ninth position after 16 games. This comes after winning seven games in total, with four draws too. However, they did unfortunately fall to defeat five times in the meantime. As a result, the Lambs have gained 25 points in total - nine points adrift from top spot, but only two points away from a playoff position. Furthermore, the Staffordshire outfit have already won a game in the FA Cup this term, after squeezing past Step 3 Hyde United in the last round of qualifying, as previously mentioned.

After bowing out of the League One playoff final last season, Leyton Orient haven’t exactly replicated their miraculous form this term. The O’s currently sit 14th in the third division, after having won five, drawn two and lost seven of their opening 14 games. Consequently, this puts the East London side on 17 points, which is only four points greater than the drop zone. Moreover, Orient didn’t have much luck in the EFL Cup this term, having lost 1-0 to Wycombe in the first round back in August.
