Leyton Orient boss Richie Wellens is relishing his side’s trip to the Toughsheet Community Stadium this weekend.

The O’s enter the game on the back of a late 2-1 victory at Cheltenham, and Wellens hopes they can keep building momentum.

But the 43-year-old knows it will be difficult in front of a big crowd and against a “squad full of quality”.

“It is one of the best stadiums and one of the biggest clubs in the division,” he told the club’s YouTube channel.

“The reason we wanted promotion so badly last season was to play at stadiums like this so it is a good opportunity for the players.

“We are looking forward to it against a good team, but I am hoping the confidence we can take from a really positive result is something that can move us forward.

“We can expect a good crowd. They are a well-supported club, a massive club. They also finished third in the League Two table two or three years ago so they have allowed Ian Evatt to keep putting things in place and improving the squad.

“It is a big squad full of quality. We know their quality because we had Sads (Kieran Sadlier) from them last year. He couldn’t get in their team but Sads had a really good input for us.

“It is a very good club in terms of being loyal to Ian and I think he is a really good manager. I like the way his teams play and it is a forward-thinking club with a lot of stability.”

Orient are aiming to build on their promotion from League Two last season when they clinched the title.

When asked if Wanderers’ progress over the past few years is the “blueprint” to follow, Wellens replied: “I think it is really difficult because they are getting 20-odd thousand fans every week, it is a club that has been in the Premier League.”

He added: “It’s a little bit different for us, we have to take things a little bit slower.

"But I think it is a blueprint that we can take forward in coming transfer windows and seasons, and keep adding layers to what we have already got.”
