Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Northampton and L Orient will score 2 or more goals between them.

The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.33 equating to approximately a 77% probability.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Northampton are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 43% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 3.00.
