Leyton Orient - Cheltenham Town predictions and free betting tips [06/04/2024]

On April 6th in League 1, the third-tier division of England, Leyton Orient will play against Cheltenham at the "Brisbane Road" stadium. Let's take a look at the current state of the teams and try to make a decision that will help us increase our bankroll.

Leyton Orient

After 10 seasons, the team has earned their long-awaited return to League 1. Last year, they managed to claim the top spot in the championship, boasting the second-best home record in the tournament. They currently sit in 10th place in the league table.

In the 37th match of the season, Leyton suffered a defeat at the hands of Wigan (0:1). The next round resulted in a draw with Port Vale (0:0). Afterwards, the guys achieved a victory against Stevenage (1:0). However, they then lost to Lincoln (0:1). In the last match, the team fell short against Peterborough with a score of (1:2).

Cheltenham

Last season, they finished in the 16th place in the third division. They are currently in the 22nd position which, for now, means relegation to League 2. In the 35th round, they lost to Charlton (1:3). Then, the team fell to Oxford (1:2).

They drew the subsequent match with Barnsley (0:0). After that, they triumphed over Fleetwood with a score of (2:1). However, in the last match, they could not replicate their success, losing to Exeter City (1:2).

Head to Head

The teams last met on December 16th, 2023. In that encounter, Leyton came out on top with a score of (2:1).

Prediction

Both teams have demonstrated similar statistics in recent matches. However, Leyton has been faring much better this season, winning home games quite often, although they've been somewhat unlucky in recent matches. Cheltenham, on the other hand, is scrapping for points, but not always successfully. From this, I'd favour a draw in the upcoming match.

Total Prediction

I believe that the teams won't manage to play a high-scoring game, therefore, I would suggest placing a bet on TU 2.5.
