History of the Leyton Orient v Lincoln City fixture

Leyton Orient prepare to entertain Lincoln City at Matchroom Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The O's are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 6 of the 29 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Matchroom Stadium was less than a year ago, in February 2005, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Two match.
