Leyton Orient travel to take on Swindon Town at County Ground on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The O's will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 18 and win only 6 of the 34 games.
The last time the two teams met at Swindon Town was back in August 1999, over five years ago, with Leyton Orient inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Robins in a League Cup match.
