After a throughly entertaining, but eventually heartbreaking, outing on Tuesday, can Harrogate Town bounce back?

The Sulphurites led 1-0 and then 3-1 away to Exeter City in midweek but somehow managed to lose 4-3 down at St James’ Park.

This means Simon Weaver’s side are now winless in three matches, only claiming all three points in two of their last 12 outings.

Leyton Orient are one place and five points below their hosts.

Kenny Jackett’s men are in horrendous form as last Saturday’s 2-0 home defeat to Salford City means they haven’t won in nine, losing seven of these.

Since their last victory, over Swindon on 7 December, Orient have dropped from seventh, the last play-off place, all the way down to 16th.

Who will claim three important points at Wetherby Road?
