Live Charlton vs Leyton Orient: Teams and latest updates from League One playoff final
Good morning and welcome to Telegraph Sport 's live, minute-by-minute coverage of the League One play-off final between Charlton Athletic and Leyton Orient at Wembley. Ninety minutes separate one of these teams from securing a prized place in the Championship. Given the capital clubs' home strips, the national stadium's stands will be a sea of red. It ought to be well-attended too: there can be few excuses for interminable journeys to the stadium, given their relatively proximity. It is five years since Charlton, Premiership staples not so long ago, were in English football's second tier. Their opponents have not occupied those heady heights since 1982. Orient, who finished the league season sixth, are the form team, winning their last six matches in the league to swoop into the play-off places with perfect timing. In their semi-final, they prevailed with a nerveless penalty shoot-out display against Stockport County after drawing 2-2 and 1-1 in the home and away legs respectively. Striker Charlie Kelman is their danger-man, the league's top scorer with 23 goals. Nathan Jones' Charlton finished fourth in the table and the south-east Londoners won both their fixtures in the league against Leyton Orient, thanks to stoppage-time goals. Prolific striker Matt Godden's 81st minute goal in the second leg against Wycombe Wanderers was the only one to go in during 180 minutes of play, getting them to within a game of the Championship. The south-east Londoners had the stronger campaign, have the more illustrious reputation and start as slight favourites to join automatically-promoted Birmingham City and Wrexham. But the play-off final is a funny old game, ripe for surprise and drama. There is no adrenaline high quite like going up at Wembley on the last day of the season – just ask Sunderland fans. The low, for the losing team and their supporters, is not worth thinking about.
