LAST TIME AT BRISBANE ROAD: Orient 3 Bournemouth 2 (Football League One 12-08-2006).
HEAD TO HEAD: Orient 28 wins, Bournemouth 29 wins and 16 draws.
FORM: Bournemouth go into the game with only four points on the board from as many games. A 0-0 draw at Nottingham Forest on the opening day was followed by a 1-0 home defeat to Huddersfield Town before the Cherries took all three points at Doncaster Rovers. Kevin Bond's men however suffered their second league defeat of the season after going down 1-0 at home to Port Vale on Saturday. Meanwhile Orient have picked up maximum points in wins over Southend, Walsall and Crewe, followed by a 2-2 draw against Northampton.
DANGER MAN: Former England international Darren Anderton (pictured above)played a vital role in Bournemouth's survival last season, scoring a hat-trick in the 5-0 mauling of the O's at Dean Court in February. The ex-Spurs man has been ever present this season despite being labelled sicknote' earlier in his career.
FUN FACTS: George Best made five appearances for Bournemouth towards the end of the 1983 season. TV and radio presenter Jayne Middlemiss (pictured below) is also reported to be a Cherries supporter.
PREDICTION: Leyton Orient 2 Bournemouth 1
