League One Fixtures 26th December Part 1

Brighton & Hove Albion v Leyton Orient
This could be a good chance for Andrew Crofts’ Brighton to pick up some much-needed points. A 5-0 win will ensure that Orient replace them in the bottom three. Don’t hold your breath lads.

Bristol Rovers v Walsall
Ben Swallow has a good chance of getting his second league start as Jeff Hughes is suspended. This is a great opportunity for Ben and I hope he grabs it with both… feet. Rhys Evans and Byron Anthony are likely to be watching from the bench as Ben takes on the likes of Rhys Weston and Mark Bradley.

Charlton Athletic v Swindon Town
Charlton defender Grant Basey will be hoping Charlton won’t let in four goals again as they did last week against Millwall.

Gillingham v Brentford
Wojciech Szczesny's loan from Arsenal has been extended so Lewis Price can hope to be on the bench at most for Brentford. James Wilson has returned to parent club Bristol City due to a back injury but it’s possible he’ll go back to Brentford when he’s better.

Leeds United v Hartlepool United
Sam Vokes was inexplicably left out of Leeds’ matchday squad last week. Let’s hope Leeds manager Simon Grayson doesn’t make the same mistake again.
