Uwe Rosler predicts "very close" Leyton Orient clash

Brentford manager Uwe Rosler has claimed that his side's League One encounter against unbeaten leaders Leyton Orient tonight will be "very close".

The Bees will start the match at Griffin Park three points off the playoff places in the table, while Orient sit three points clear.

"My players know that they are facing a team in form," Rosler told Sports Mole. T"here is a good reason why Leyton Orient are at the top of the league. They had a good end to last season and they've carried that on to this season.

"They will have patches this season when they will not win every game and it will be interesting to see how they will handle that.

"For us, we're hanging in there but there is a lot of potential for us to be better. And we will be better. I predict it will be a very close game."

Brentford and Orient played out a 2-2 draw in this fixture last season.
