Tamworth team overview
Tamworth secured promotion from National League North in the 2023/24 season when they won the league title dominantly. In the following season, the Lambs had a decent season, finishing tenth in the National League, failing to make the Playoffs by only four points. This year, they are doing fine once again as they won 25 points in 16 rounds and are two points away from the Playoffs.
After a 3:1 loss against Boston United in the previous game, coach Andy Peaks spoke to the media. He was disappointed with the result, saying his team started well but failed to make the most of their early momentum. The coach added that they have to be more clinical in the box and learn from this setback.

Leyton Orient team overview
Leyton Orient managed to secure two promotions between the 2018/19 and 2022/23 seasons, moving pretty quickly from the National League to League One. In the following two seasons, they finished 11th and sixth in League One. Last year, they came super close to securing promotion, losing 1:0 in the Playoffs Finals. Unfortunately, the O's haven't been as good this year, considering they are in 14th place with 17 points after 14 rounds. However, there are some positive signs as they won two of the last three league games and four out of the previous five across the competitions.
After a 1:0 win over Aston Villa, coach Richie Wellens spoke to the media. He was satisfied with a win but also a bit frustrated as they needed 78 minutes to score. The coach also said he used the game to give some fringe players more playing time.

Prediction
Tamworth are in a pretty solid form, winning three out of the last four games. Looking further back, Tamworth lost just once in ten out of the previous 11 games. They have scored at least once in all of those 11 games, and have scored in every single of their 11 home games. We believe they will score at least once at home vs Leyton Orient.
Leyton Orient won four out of the last five games across the competitions. They have also been good offensively for some time, scoring at least one goal in ten out of the last 11 games across the competitions. So, scoring at least one goal against a team from two leagues below is a must, even if they choose to rotate the squad a bit. Moreover, both teams scored in five out of the previous six road games of Leyton Orient.
Considering all the above, we believe that both teams to score is the safest option for this FA Cup tie.
3 Reasons why both teams should score
- Tamworth and Leyton Orient scored at least once in ten of the last 11 games across the competitions
- Tamworth scored at least one goal in all 11 home games
