History of the Brentford v Leyton Orient fixture

Brentford play host to Leyton Orient at Griffin Park on Saturday afternoon, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having chalked up an impressive 12 wins out of 18 previous matches.

The last time the two teams met at Brentford was back in April 1999, over five years ago, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides

Brentford's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Bees have scored 4, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.

Leyton Orient's away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. The O's's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 8 goals for and 6 against.

Brentford find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 27 games have yielded only 21 points. Leyton Orient are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 27 points from their 26 games thus far.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the Bees at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the O's come away with an easy victory. Away win
