Sports Mole previews Tuesday's League One clash between Exeter City and Leyton Orient, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Leyton Orient will look to extend their 10-game unbeaten league run when they travel to St James Park for Tuesday's meeting with Exeter City.

In contrast to the visitors, the Grecians will be low on confidence after failing to win any of their last six matches in League One.

Preview: Exeter vs. Leyton Orient - prediction, team news, lineups

Exeter have added just two points to their tally since they recorded their most league victory in a home game against Bristol Rovers on Boxing Day.

They followed that result with a thrilling 4-4 draw against Crawley Town, before they lost three consecutive league matches against Wycombe Wanderers, Bolton Wanderers and Birmingham City.

While they halted that losing run with a draw against Peterborough United, Exeter fell to another defeat in Saturday's home meeting with Blackpool, conceding three first-half goals in a 3-1 loss to Steve Bruce's side.

As a result, 17th-placed Exeter have now won just one of their last eight home league games (D3, L4), suggesting that they will have their work cut out to take three points from Tuesday's fixture.

However, Gary Caldwell's side may be able to draw inspiration from October's meeting between the two sides, which saw the Grecians clinch a narrow 1-0 away victory thanks to an Amani Richards effort.

At the end of November, Leyton Orient were laughing in the League One relegation zone with 15 points from 16 league matches.

Two months later, Orient's relegation fears are a distant memory, having put together a 10-game unbeaten league run (W8, D2) to move up to seventh place and within one point of the playoffs.

They recently saw a run of five consecutive league victories ended by a goalless away draw against Peterborough United, before they quickly returned to winning ways in Saturday's home meeting with Reading.

Blackburn Rovers loanee Dilan Markanday scored his first Orient goal to open the scoring, before Charlie Kelman doubled the advantage to wrap up a 2-0 victory, representing a fourth consecutive home league win without conceding.

In fact, the O's have recorded clean sheets in nine of their 10 matches during their impressive unbeaten run, and they will hope that a strong backline can help them in their efforts to claim an away win over Exeter for the second season in a row.

Team News

Exeter defender Vincent Harper is a doubt for the midweek fixture, having missed the last two matches with concussion.

Jack Fitzwater will also have to be assessed by Exeter's medical staff after being forced off in the first half against Blackpool.

Millenic Alli is set to feature in the forward line, with the striker looking to score in a third consecutive match.

As for the visitors, they may have to make do without the services of Jack Simpson, who sat out the recent win over Reading due to injury.

Swansea City loanee Azeem Abdulai is set to retain his place in the starting lineup after making his Orient debut on Saturday.

Kelman will continue to offer one of the home side's main goal threats, having scored eight times in 26 league appearances this season.


Exeter City possible starting lineup:
Whitworth; Diabate, McDonald, Francis; Niskanen, Richards, Colwill, McMillan; Mitchell; Alli, Magennis

Leyton Orient possible starting lineup:
Keeley; Galbraith, Beckles, Cooper, Currie; Pratley, Brown; Markanday, Donley, Abdulai; Kelman


We say: Exeter City 1-2 Leyton Orient

Leyton Orient will carry significant momentum into the midweek fixture, and we think that they will extend their 10-game unbeaten run by claiming a narrow win over an Exeter side that have lost three of their previous five home league matches.
