Leyton Orient are likely to be without several players this weekend when they host Crewe Alexandra in League One.

The O's will definitely be missing midfielder Anthony Griffith after he picked up a two match suspension for his red card against Yeovil Town.

There are also doubts over the fitness of striker Kevin Lisbie after he came off on Tuesday night with a hamstring injury.

Orient moved within a round of reaching Wembley in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, after a 1-0 win over the Glovers, but Dean Cox insists the attention is all on the league again tomorrow.

The former Brighton winger said: "We'll go for it again against Crewe. Games are coming thick and fast every Saturday and Tuesday and I prefer that myself so we're looking forward to getting another positive with the team on a high."

The two sides drew 1-1 back in September and Crewe are currently five points above Orient in the table albeit having played two more games than the O's.
