History of the York City v Leyton Orient fixture

Leyton Orient face a trip to York City at Bootham Crecent on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 8 out of 12 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in November 2002, as the Minstermen edged out their past their rivals by a score of 3 - 2 in a League Division Three match.
