The Anorak: Notts County can add to O's woes at best price of 17-20

NOTTS County at 17-20 with Victor Chandler are this week's best bet to overcome injury-plagued Orient.

The Magpies were good to this column last year and although they've gone up a division amid financial turmoil, they managed to hold on to Lee Hughes, who notched a hat-trick in their demolition of Yeovil in their last home game. Stoke (evens) can test West Ham's fragile resolve in today's lunchtime encounter, while Everton are fancied to pick up their first win of the season at home to Newcastle (4-6 Ladbrokes) and Manchester United can silence the critics at Old Trafford tomorrow against Liverpool (8-11 general).

For a long-shot, Dundee United have an incredible record of drawing at Ibrox in the last few seasons and at 19-5 with bet365 it is surely worth an interest.
