Accrington Stanley vs Leyton Orient Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

A resurgent Accrington side look a good bet to get another three points when they host Leyton Orient on Tuesday but we feel the better value is in the goals market. For our tip we are backing there to be over 2.5 goals, which is available at 17/20 with bet365. For our correct score tip we think that Orient may well be able to grab a goal, but we feel they will ultimately be outclassed and fall to a 3-1 defeat, which is available at 12/1 with the same site.

After a run of six games without defeat Accrington fans will be forgiven for wondering where this form has been all season. Although relegation now looks unlikely they will be keen to put a bit more daylight between themselves and the drop zone. A key part of their renaissance has been their form in front of goal and they have scored 13 goals from their previous six league games. Even though they have managed two clean sheets in a row they have remained a little suspect at the back, and those same six games has seen them conceed nine goals at the other end.

Leyton Orient’s problems are well documented and following a heavy 3-0 home defeat to Grimsby at the weekend, their bid for survival in League Two is looking like an increasingly uphill challenge. Like their hosts they have found plenty of goals going in at both ends of the pitch of late and their previous eight league games have seen a total of 26 goals scored, which averages at 3.25 goals per game.

The Orient fans have set up a fundraising campaign to raise £250,000 towards their survival. If you wish to donate then please click here.
