Five games unbeaten in all competitions is something worth protecting but Exeter City arguably face their toughest test of the autumn spell this weekend.

Leyton Orient will be the hosts and a side feeling a bit sore after a 4-1 reverse at Wycombe Wanders. The motivation for both sides is to pull clear of the relegation zone and the East Londoners are a side far more comfortable on their home turf.

City, meanwhile, will be glad to get away from St James Park after a fire ravaged parts of the stadium in midweek, causing a heavy repair bill.

On the pitch, City boss Gary Caldwell is expecting a stern challenge, as he told the club website: "We won there last year and know how tough it was and how much we had to suffer. We had a really difficult experience at home against them, where we were really poor on the night. 

"We know what type of match to expect and that, as a group, we have to suffer. We have to show our behaviours and consistent action that we have had in the previous five games. 

"It's another game and challenge that we are looking forward to and we are going into it with confidence."
