Leyton Orient are all but promoted to the Football League but they may not have it all their own way as they bid to make it official against relegated Braintree.

Orient have managed games well to pick up the results they need to get three points ahead of Salford going into the last game, but they are prone to slip-ups at the back.

Despite their imminent drop Braintree have looked keen to go out with their heads held high. They have four victories in their last five games and have scored two or more goals in six of their last eight.

Justin Edinburgh’s Orient will want to put on a show, but the Iron have enough quality up front to get on the scoresheet.
