Brentford vs Leyton Orient Prediction: Lively affair expected in West London

Premier League side Brentford will aim to reach the fourth round of the EFL Cup on Tuesday when they take on League One outfit Leyton Orient. 

The Bees beat Colchester United in the previous round of the competition, while the O's have overcome Newport County and Millwall to reach the third round.

Team News 

Brentford boss Thomas Frank is unable to call upon the services of Yoane Wissa, with the striker set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines. 

Frank has revealed that Wissa will be on the treatment table for at least a couple of months after failing to complete Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Manchester City. 

Wissa joins Gustavo Nunes, Joshua Da Silva, Mathias Jensen and Igor Thiago in the treatment room, while Aaron Hickey and Rico Henry are not fully fit after recently recovering from injury. 

Leyton Orient defender Daniel Happe is set to miss out after suffering an injury in the 1-0 win over Reading. 

Brentford vs Leyton Orient Odds 

Due to their Premier League status and home advantage, Brentford are 3/10 to win Tuesday's cup tie. The draw is available at 4/1, while Leyton Orient are considered 8/1 outsiders. 

Both teams to score is available at 10/11, while Bryan Mbeumo is the favourite to score anytime at 21/20. 

Over 2.5 goals @ 4/7 

Brentford stunned Manchester City inside the first 30 seconds on Saturday, but they failed to hang onto their lead and succumbed to a 2-1 defeat. 

The Bees have won three of their five matches this season in all competitions, only failing to score in one of those games. 

Leyton Orient are 22nd in League One after losing four of their five league matches, but a 1-0 win over Reading at the weekend will have given them a huge lift. 

While the O's should fall short against the Bees, they may get some joy of their own in front of goal. 

Brentford have faced the most shots on target this season in the Premier League (27), so over 2.5 goals covers any chance of Leyton Orient having their say. 

Keane Lewis-Potter to score any time @ 9/5 

Frank will look to rest Mbeumo as Brentford's main attacker, while Wissa's injury means his options are limited. 

Alongside Wissa and Mbeumo, Lewis-Potter is the only other Bees player to score this season and he has registered three shots on target in as many games. 

The former Hull ace may be tasked with leading the line alongside Kevin Schade and his current form suggests he could get himself on the scoresheet.
