Leyton Orient v Hartlepool United preview

Leyton Orient could hand a home debut to Scott Wagstaff: Simon O'Connor Leyton Orient could hand a home debut to Scott Wagstaff: Simon O'Connor

Leyton Orient will be looking to bounce back tonight at home to Hartlepool United after their lame defeat at Bournemouth. 

The O's produced their worst showing of the season losing 2-0 at the Cherries on Saturday but will be favourites this evening against their struggling opponents.

Orient boss Russell Slade, who is likely to hand a home debut to Charlton loan signing Scott Wagstaff, said: "I will be looking for a little bit of bouncebackability on Tuesday. We need to bounce back quickly and we don't have to wait too long. 

"Players have got to see that as an opportunity to pounce and make that position themselves and make an impression. That's what we're looking to happen and see who can fill those shoes and start turning a few results round for us."

Hartlepool have a miserable record this season with just one victory and they have not won in their last nine games.

This evening's game at Brisbane Road was rearranged after Hartlepool were struck in traffic during the original fixture back in August.
