Exeter vs. Leyton Orient
Exeter City aims to solidify their position at the pinnacle of League One as they prepare to face Leyton Orient at St James Park this Saturday at 3.00pm.
The Exeter squad has kicked off their second campaign in the third tier on a high note, contrasting with Leyton Orient, who are still adapting to the challenges of this level.
Our prediction: Exeter City 3-1 Leyton Orient
Exeter has shown impressive form in the early stages of the season. Many within the club believe that Caldwell’s team can still elevate their performance further, which should be a concerning prospect for Leyton Orient before this weekend’s encounter.
Leyton Orient has encountered difficulties in containing some of the division’s most potent attacks this season. We anticipate that their leaky defense will lead to a defeat against the reigning League Two champions.
Stevenage vs. Carlisle
Stevenage has the opportunity to claim the League One summit as they go head-to-head with fellow newly-promoted side Carlisle United this Saturday at 3.00pm.
After ascending from League Two last season, both teams have had distinct beginnings to the new campaign.
Stevenage currently sits third with 13 points from six matches, while Carlisle gained their first league win last weekend, bringing their total points to five.
Our prediction: Stevenage 2-0 Carlisle United
Carlisle United may be buoyed by their recent victory, but Stevenage possesses momentum following their promotion and strong start to the season. We expect them to have the upper hand on home turf against the Cumbrians.
