I believe the answer is:

tie

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'link' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'it up with orient this match' is the second definition.
'tie' can be an answer for 'match' (tie can mean a sporting fixture). I'm not certain of the rest of the definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tie that I've seen before include "Gentleman's item of clothing" , "Equal scores" , "Attach, fasten" , "Fasten, link to" , "item round neck" .)
