History of the Morecambe v Dagenham & Redbridge fixture

Morecambe prepare to entertain Dagenham & Redbridge at Christie Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Shrimps are clearly on top, having won 6 and lost only 1 of the 10 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Christie Park was less than a year ago, in January 2008, the Shrimps carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Morecambe's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. A generous 9 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Dag. & Red.'s away form is none too clever either, picking up two good wins, but losing three, from the last six. While the Daggers have hit 7 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Morecambe find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 1 points from their 3 matches. Dag. & Red. are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 7 points from 3 games.
