Preview

Leyton Orient produced a strong defensive performance to hold on for a goalless draw against second-placed Bradford last time out in Michael Duff's first game in charge. However, the London club have won just one of their last seven games in all competitions.

Blackpool travel to the BetWright Stadium looking to shake off the disappointment of a 1-0 away defeat to Cambridge United in gameweek 10. The Tangerines have picked up just one point from the last 15 available heading into Saturday's contest.
