On Saturday afternoon Walsall Football Club will play host to Leyton Orient in the latest Sky Bet League 1 fixture of the season. The latest head to head information is below.

Of the seventy matches played; it's Leyton Orient that hold the overall lead, with twenty-nine victories to the Saddlers' twenty-two. There have also been nineteen draws during the fixtures' history.

Their first meeting took place at Clapton Stadium on Saturday, 12th October 1929 in Division Three (South). The O's, who were then known as Clapton Orient, held the Saddlers to a 1-1 draw.

In more recent times, their last meeting took place on Saturday, 23rd August 2014, the game which was played at the Matchroom Stadium, ended without a goal and was the sides' second stalemate running, having drawn their previous fixture one-all at Banks's Stadium on Saturday, 22nd March of the same year.

Over the last ten meetings there have been five draws, four defeats, and just one victory for the Saddlers with the O's having seemingly developed an advantage over Walsall that is proving difficult to overcome.

The Saddlers have only beaten the O's twice since 23rd February 1985, and including that victory have a record of; played twenty, won three, drawn eight, lost nine in all competitions.
