LEYTON ORIENT-TORQUAY UNITED FA CUP REPLAY


The O's have finally found some form after a dismal run and have now only lost once in their last 6 starts.

After a strong win over Huddersfield at the weekend, they can approach tonight with a confidence, that has been lacking all season.

Torquay are in a dismal run and have only beaten non league Leatherhead, in 15 starts, going back to mid September.

Second from bottom of Division 2, with only Macclesfield below, they face a MASSIVE 6 pointer on Saturday, when Boston, one place above them, visit Plainmoor.

They are without 3 players tonight, including top scorer Jamie Ward and fellow striker Lee Thorpe, who between them, have contributed 11 goals to Torquay's meagre haul this year.

I know that Orient boss Martin Ling, is very keen to keep the run going and is excited by the prospect of a 3rd round tie with Championship side, Southampton.

Football League survival should be the only priority for the visitors.

4 points Leyton Orient -3/4 ball asian line 1.97.

Back later.

Good Luck.
