NORTHWICH VICTORIA - DAGENHAM & REDBRIDGE


We have pretty much a Conference friendly here tonight.


The Daggers have earned promotion to the Football League and probably spent the weekend celebrating, they got the "traditional" poor performance out of the way, when losing at Cambridge on Monday, after racing into a very early 2 goal lead. Manager John Still, has done a wonderful job this season, but would not have been happy about that.


I expect them to produce a more professional display this evening.


Northwich have a very congested fixture list and still have an amazing 8 league games to play, before the end of the season, virtually everyone else has just 3 or 4. They looked very tired in the defeat at Grays last time out and started extremely sluggishly, giving away several excellent chances in the opening 5 minutes alone.


I would not argue with anyone who wanted to take the "over", which is priced around the 1.87 mark, there should be goals. However, my feeling is that the Champions will get back to basics and given the way both teams started last time out, they could get off to a flying start. If that is the case, they should make a better fist of holding on to the lead this time.


3 points Dagenham-Dagenham HT/FT double result 4.33 Ladbrokes / Corals 4.0 + general.
lost -3 points


Good Luck.
