Leyton Orient - Port Vale predictions

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.60 is a solid option. That said, Port Vale may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

The current perspective makes the situation plain as day. Given the superiority of Leyton Orient and the 6.28 odds given to Port Vale to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a stunning upset.

The home team will be hoping to make up the points they lost in the previous round. The game itself was a dry affair with a stalemate in the first half and an eventual narrow home win for Wigan Athletic. However, Leyton Orient were expected to perform much better, with most bookmakers online naming them the favourites going in.

The last time we saw Port Vale they were playing a home game against Shrewsbury Town, which most experts consider a relatively balanced matchup. Still, an early concession forced them on the defensive and they were unable to catch up for the remainder of the game, ultimately losing 1:2.

With two consecutive matches with 1 goal or fewer, games in which Leyton Orient play are not the best for Over markets.

Port Vale’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 7 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

The two teams already met this season in the League One, with Leyton Orient taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Tuesday.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.85. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
