Match Preview

Westley set for Deepdale debut Graham Westley will take charge for the first time when Preston chase back-to-back home wins against Leyton Orient. Westley watched on from the stands at Deepdale after being appointed as Phil Brown's successor last week to see caretaker manager duo Graham Alexander and David Unsworth guide the Lilywhites to a dramatic 3-2 victory over Wycombe. Steven Smith was sent off for two bookable offences in that match and will miss Westley's bow due to a one-match suspension. Jamie Proctor (hernia) is battling to be fit to contest a place in attack, although fellow strikers Iain Hume (hamstring) and Neil Mellor (knee) remain on the sidelines. Veteran midfielder Barry Nicholson returned from ankle trouble against Wycombe and is hoping to be retained having topped up on his match fitness with a reserve outing in midweek. Dean Leacock could make his Leyton Orient debut. The former Derby defender signed for the Os last Friday but the deal did not go through in time for him to face Chesterfield at the weekend. Leacock could step into a back four still missing Ben Chorley, who is serving the final game of a three-match ban. Skipper Stephen Dawson remains sidelined with an ankle injury which is expected to keep him out for six weeks. Tunisian defender Syam Ben Youssef was on the bench against Chesterfield after joining until the end of the season and should be involved again. Goalkeeper Jamie Jones is fit after a shoulder operation but may need some more reserve games.

Match Report

Westley downed by Orient Marc Laird and Jimmy Smith's second-half strikes helped Leyton Orient rain on the parade of Preston boss Graham Westley as his first game in charge ended in a 2-0 defeat. Laird curled in an inch-perfect opener in the 67th minute before former Chelsea midfielder Smith pounced on a loose ball late on to round off a dominant O's display. Westley made five changes to his first Preston side but it was Orient who dominated the first half - David Mooney having an effort ruled out for offside early on. Dean Cox then should have done better after Kevin Lisbie's strong run and pull-back before the Orient winger stung the palms of Thorsten Stuckmann seconds before the interval. The visitors got the goal their performance deserved 20 minutes after the restart when Laird, after being released by Leon McSweeney, curled in his first goal in Orient colours. The game was put beyond doubt 10 minutes from time when, after the home defence failed to deal with a high ball into the box, Smith popped up to fire home the second.
