This article focuses upon Leyton Orient’s next opponents, Hartlepool United, as we take a look at their form, previous meetings and much more ahead of this weekend’s fixture.
After having a week away from competitive fixtures, Hartlepool play host to table toppers, Leyton Orient this weekend at the Super 6 Stadium.
Hartlepool go into the fixture sat 15th in the league table, losing three of their last four and having won just twice since the turn of the year.
Comparatively, The O’s have won three of their last four fixtures and remain three points clear at the top of the table. Last weekend Justin Edinburgh’s side continued league form into the Fa Trophy, where Jamie Turley headed Orient into the Quarter Finals at the expense of Blyth Spartans.
Although the recent form favours the east Londoners, historically Hartlepool have had marginally more success in this fixture. Pools have been victorious in 21 league matches between the sides, with Orient winning 20 with red cards being given out the last two times the teams have faced eachother.
