Leyton Orient and Plymouth Argyle meet in League One, with the hosts having just won 1-0 in their last match, while the visitors have just lost 0-1 at home after previously being on a winning run in the league for several matches. The two teams' conditions are therefore clearly different. The hosts have just got back to winning ways with three points, while the visitors have stumbled for the first time in over a month. Leyton Orient this season have scored 13 and conceded 9 from 7 matches. Their attack is decent but their defence has lapses. Plymouth Argyle have scored 14 and conceded 11 from 8 matches. They are a team that opens up and attacks more but clearly has less possession than their opponents (43.2% possession in their last 10 matches), yet they shoot on target noticeably more than the hosts. This game therefore tends towards the hosts controlling the ball and the visitors waiting to counter. If Leyton Orient score first, Plymouth Argyle will have to open up and attack, which is the moment the hosts are good at playing into space, and the game should become more end-to-end in the second half. But if the visitors score first, the hosts will have to push higher and the game could become one where the visitors get plenty of space to counter.
