Leyton Orient – Barnsley preview: latest form, news, and potential lineups

Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for this duel, including our predicted Leyton Orient vs Barnsley lineups.

Leyton Orient

Leyton Orient have been playing well lately. They edged Carlisle 1-0 in their most recent outing. Dominated the game and made the most of their set pieces to deserve this win. 

The O’s have now lost just 1 of their last 6 matches and they seem to have settled nicely in the division after the promotion gained last term. 

The manager waits to see if the important centre-back Beckles can feature. He got hurt playing for his national team and will need to be assessed upon his return. The other main centre-back Thompson is a long-term absentee so this creates issues at the back. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Brynn (GK), Cooper, Happe Turns, Brown, Hunt, El Mizouni, Graham, Galbraith, Pigott & Sotiriou 

Barnsley

Barnsley left it late on their visit to Exeter but still found a way to secure a dramatic win. The Tykes deserved the 3 points from this match as they were by far the better team. Cole was very wasteful though. He squandered 4 big chances in the game. A strange display from a player who scored 7 goals in the previous 8 rounds. 

Barnsley have now won 5 consecutive away matches and they continue to be the highest-scoring team in the division. 

From the 5 players currently in the treatment room the most important ones are defenders Lopata and Cundy, plus inner midfielder Connell. At least, there seems to be no fresh injury issues. 

Predicted Lineup: 

Roberts (GK), Williams, De Gevigney, McCart, Russell, O’Keeffe, Cadden, Styles, Kane, Cosgrove & Cole

​Starting Lineups

The teams usually announce their starting lineups one hour before the start of the game.

​Player to Watch: Devante Cole

Barnsley's striker Devante Cole has been unplayable so far this season – 9 goals in 11 league appearances. Cole has a blistering pace and last season he scored 72% of his goals on the road. 

Cole's confidence is very high right and he will certainly be under the spotlights again in the coming match.
