- 7 Common Questions About Our Salford vs Leyton Orient Predictions
Draw
Our football experts couldn’t pick a favorite for our Salford vs Leyton Orient prediction. A draw is the most plausible outcome of this rivalry as the head-to-head data says the two teams are evenly matched.
Salford City and Leyton Orient faced each other on eight occasions in the past and they ended with a slight advantage to Salford City – three victories for the Ammies, two for Leyton Orient, and three draws.
The most common result we’ve seen is the 1-1 draw. Three of the eight matches between Salford City and Leyton Orient ended that way. It wouldn’t be too surprising for Friday’s clash to end with a 1-1 tie as well.
Paul Smyth to Score Anytime
With Charlie Kelman now suspended, it’ll be up to Paul Smyth to step up and be the difference-maker for coach Richie Wellens. The game on Friday is going to be the Paul Smyth show as Leyton Orient’s winger already proved his one of the most influential players on the team.
With 10 goals since the season kicked off last year, Paul Smyth is putting some of the top League Two strikers to shame. Furthermore, he also provided teammates with two assists and he’ll undoubtedly be involved in most of Leyton Orient’s attacks on Friday.

Salford odds: 13/10 (2.30) – 42.0%
Draw odds: 47/20 (3.35) – 26.0%
Leyton Orient odds: 39/20 (2.95) – 32.0%
Salford are the expected winners in clash at 13/10 (2.30) as their 42.0% win probability is quite convincing. However, a Paul Smyth goal on Friday at 187/100 (2.87) also looks quite alluring. Sure, Smyth’s chances are at 34.8% but we think they should be higher as Leyton Orient’s key striker Charlie Kelman is suspended.
Salford vs Leyton Orient Lineups & Team News
Salford
The Ammies are having a decent season. With 18 victories, nine draws, and 12 losses in the 2022/23 campaign, they lost all chances for the title but dreams of promotion are still in the minds of the fans. Salford City have 63 points to their name after 39 League Two games and if they manage to win a couple of more games, we just might see them in League One next season.
Predicted lineup – Cairns (GK), Mcloughlin, Leak, Vessell, Lowe, Watt, Mallan, McAleny, Galbraith, Bolton & Hendry
Leyton Orient
Richie Wellens’ boys are at the top of the table with 77 points. It’d take one hell of a horrible performance until the end of the season for Leyton Orient to lose 1st place to Northampton or Stevenage. With 50 goals scored and 25 conceded, Leyton Orient deserve all the praise coming their way and we’re convinced that they’ll avoid defeat on Friday as well, as you saw in our Salford vs Leyton Orient predictions.
Predicted lineup – Vigoroux (GK), Hunt, Beckles, Turns, Sweeney, Pratley, El Mizouni, Sadlier, Moncur, Smyth & Drinan
Starting Lineups
*Starting lineups are usually announced 1hr before the kick-off
Player to Watch: Lawrence Vigoroux
Lawrence is among the best goalkeepers in League Two this season. He’s the chief reason why Leyton Orient have the best defensive record this season – 25 goals conceded. Lawrence Vigoroux pulled off a remarkable piece of goalkeeping this season to keep plenty of clean sheets and we’re convinced he’ll be at his lethal best on Friday when his team faces the difficult Salford City challenge.
