Aston Villa vs Leyton Orient Pre Match Thread

[Mortimer's Bear]

A nervous 2-1 victory

Weimann, Grealish

[PaulWinch again]

Nice if we could get a good confidence boosting win.

[cdbearsfan]

We haven't really tanked a lower league team for ages, not that I can remember anyway.

With no discernible forward line, I doubt we will here.

Two-one to Villa after going a goal behind.

[Mossie Hennebry]

No fluting around with the back 5 for me:

Guzan; Hutton, Cissokho, Vlaar, Senderos; Delph, El Ahmadi, N'zogbia. J. Cole; Grealish, Weimann.

Is it on the box?

[silhillvilla]

No way would I risk vlaar or Cissoko .

[Clampy]

I wouldn't risk Cissoko and i don't think he will. Got no problems with Vlaar playing though.

[Legion]

Can I just be really pedantic and say that a draw isn't an option for this tie so shouldn't be part of the poll. A comfortable win for us with Cole to score his first for us before going off injured, Grealish to finish things off in style

Ah you've shown me up there. Hoping a mod can correct my error!

Happy with that?

Thanks. Is there no way for me to edit a poll after it's been posted? (sort of makes sense if not to stop people messing with results)

I think you could simply edit your opening post.

[Legion]

2-0 home win.

Grealish 23
Bacuna 67

[Dave]

Shane Lowry's at Orient now so will presumably be his first time back since he left.

[darren woolley]

2-0 Home win.

[CJ]

According to Physioroom Cissokho's out with an ankle injury with no return date yet. Even if he recovers in time I wouldn't risk him in this game, I'd play one of Richardson, Stevens or Clark at LB.

[Steve67]

A scruffy Paul Lambert type win, substance over style. I hope Cole, Okore and Sanchez all get 90 minutes under their belts.

[Toronto Villa]

3-0 and comfortable.

I'm even going to predict the unthinkable and suggest 4 straight clean sheets with a 2-0 vs Hull at the weekend.

[silhillvilla]

3-0 and comfortable.

That's a very reasonable price. Could well happen.
