Leyton Orient pack their bags to visit Rushden & Diamonds at Nene Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Both of the previous encounters have resulted in a drawn game.
The previous match played between the two at Nene Park was within the last three years, in October 2002, with Rushden & D. running out comfortable 2 - 0 winners in a League Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides
Rushden & Diamonds's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Diamonds have scored 6, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.
Leyton Orient's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. While the O's have hit 4 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Rushden & D. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 25 points from 28 matches. Leyton Orient's 39 points from 28 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
