Leeds travel to take on Leyton Orient at the Matchroom Stadium on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 8 games played, the Whites have recorded 3 wins, and the O's have won 4 times.
The last time the two teams met at Leyton Orient was way back in the black-and-white days of November 1963, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 2 winners in a Second Division match.

Recent respective form guides
Leyton Orient's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the O's have scored 4, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Leeds' away form is quite mixed too, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The Whites have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 7 goals for and 6 against.
Leyton Orient's 56 points from 41 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position. Leeds lie just outside the play-off positions in the Coca-Cola League One, picking up 61 from their 40 games so far.
