Leyton Orient
- Leyton Orient sit 17th in the League One table, with 49 points from their 39 games so far, while Monday’s visitors Huddersfield Town are seven places and eight points better off in 10th, with 57 points.
- The hosts are in much better form than their away visitors however, as they come into this game unbeaten in their last five matches (W4, D1), while Huddersfield Town have won just once in their last five (W1, D2, L2).
Huddersfield Town
Huddersfield Town have failed to win any of their last three away games, drawing one and losing two.
Head-to-Head
Huddersfield Town have won two of the last three head-to-head meetings between these two clubs in all competitions, with Leyton Orient winning the other.
Key Players
- Dom Ballard is Leyton Orient’s talisman, as he has scored 21 goals in 33 League One games this season, including five of the hosts’ last ten in their previous five matches.
- Huddersfield Town have played a more pragmatic style of soccer since Liam Manning took charge in January 2026, as they like to sit deep and keep things compact and prefer to give the ball away and try to hit on the break when they can.
- Leo Castledine leads the line for the Terriers, the striker has scored ten goals in 23 League One appearances this term.
Betting Insights
- The O’s have won eight, drawn five and lost six of their 19 home games in the league this season and they should have enough to get the better of Huddersfield Town, who have won just five of their 20 away games in League One this term (D3, L12).
- But given the Terriers have conceded 33 goals in 20 away trips in League One, Orient concede an average of 1.26 goals per home game in the league this campaign (24 total) and that should be enough to separate the sides on Monday.
- The home win odds look too good to pass up, as the 2.84 odds on offer are very attractive for this clash.
Prediction
Both teams have played well in recent weeks but I’m siding with Leyton Orient to pick up all three points on Monday.
