Reasoning
Brazil’s creative struggles and Paraguay’s defensive solidity make a low-scoring match extremely likely. Both sides are cautious, and history supports this pick—under 2.5 goals looks the value play.

With the stakes sky-high and the Championship within touching distance, Stockport County host Leyton Orient in the second leg of their League One playoff semi-final at Edgeley Park on Wednesday night. The first leg at Brisbane Road ended in a 2-2 draw, a game filled with drama, controversial calls, and plenty of goalmouth action. Now, with a spot at Wembley on the line, both teams will need to summon their best form in this crucial clash.

Stockport, under the guidance of Dave Challinor, have been one of the most consistent sides in the division this season. The Hatters, who were battling it out in the National League just three years ago, are now just two games away from a potential return to the second tier for the first time since 2002. They are currently on a nine-game unbeaten run, a streak that includes a solid 2-2 result in the first leg where Oliver Norwood and Fraser Horsfall got on the scoresheet. Stockport’s home form has been formidable, having gone unbeaten in their last 10 games at Edgeley Park – a run that stretches back to early January. This kind of consistency at their home ground makes them clear favourites to secure a spot in the final.

Leyton Orient, on the other hand, head into this match knowing that only a win will suffice. Despite finishing nine points behind their hosts in the regular season, the O’s have shown they can mix it with the best, going unbeaten in their last eight games. Charlie Kelman, fresh from a brace of doubles in recent weeks, remains their key figure in attack, and his penalty in the 88th minute of the first leg kept their promotion dream alive. However, their defensive frailties have been a concern, particularly on the road, where they have often leaked goals against the league’s top sides.

Best Bet for Stockport County vs Leyton Orient: Stockport to Win & Both Teams to Score

Here at BettingTips4You.com, we pride ourselves on quality over quantity, offering just a single, carefully selected prediction per event. This approach allows us to stand by our choices and track our performance more accurately. For this match, our top pick is Stockport to Win & Both Teams to Score.

There are several compelling reasons to back this selection. Firstly, Stockport have been exceptional at home, winning 16 of their 23 matches at Edgeley Park this season – a formidable record that few teams in the division can match. They also head into this game on a nine-match unbeaten run, which speaks volumes about their resilience under pressure. Despite losing Louie Barry, their top scorer, in the January transfer window, Stockport have continued to find the net with regularity, boasting the second-highest goal tally in League One behind champions Birmingham City.

Leyton Orient, meanwhile, are no pushovers, especially in front of goal. They’ve scored 39 goals on the road this season – the second-highest away tally in the league – and have the attacking firepower to trouble Stockport’s backline. Charlie Kelman, in particular, is in a rich vein of form, and his ability to produce big moments in crucial games cannot be underestimated.
