We have the best free Leyton Orient vs Sutton United predictions below:

Sutton United to score first

Sutton is our favourites to go ahead any minute in this game. They will fight to defend victory in the first game and hope to retain their second spot or go top of the table. On the other hand, a 5-0 thrashing in the first game of the campaign exposed Leyton’s terrible defending.

Under 2.5 goals

A few goals are another prediction for Leyton Orient vs Sutton United. The hosts have improved their defending since suffering a 5-0 defeat in the cup fixture. They come to this duel with three clean sheet wins on the bounce. On the other hand, the visitors have kept only one clean sheet from their last three games, all in the league, since winning narrowly in the cup campaign. We think Leyton Orient will fight hard to retain their strong resurgence, especially now that they need points to compete favourably with others in the EFL Cup.

Draw

Leyton Orient and Sutton United meet for the first time in EFL Cup competition. A home win on the back of three wins in a row should have boosted the morale of Leyton Orient players, so they should put in a shift to get the necessary points in this game. A win will not be easy because Sutton United has equally defended well in recent games. We think a draw is a highly probable outcome in this match.

Leyton Orient vs Sutton United EFL Fixture Preview

Leyton Orient

A massive loss of 5-0 in the first League Trophy clash with Oxford United puts Leyton Orient under pressure to deliver in the second match of Southern Group G. They have to do better both in defending and in attacking or risk getting dumped out of the competition. This will be the 7th encounter between Leyton and Sutton, so expect a supremacy battle because both sides won thrice in previous duels. Two of Leyton's three wins against the visitors were on home soil.

Sutton United

The visitors won this matchup thrice too. However, only one of the victories was on the road. Sutton United won narrowly in a 1-0 victory against Chelsea in the first group stage game. This trip will be their first major challenge because of the history they have against Leyton. A win for Sutton wouldn't be easy but you can trust them to get at a least a goal.
