Stat Attack: Dagenham & Redbridge vs. Notts County

Notts County and Dagenham & Redbridge have met just eight times, and all the meetings have come in the last eight years.

The first clash was back on 15 September 2007, when the Magpies beat the Daggers 1-0 at Meadow Lane in League Two.

Last time round, on 9 April 2011, the East London side beat Notts 3-1 at Victoria Road in League One.

Notts are slightly ahead in terms of head-to-head, with four wins to their opponents’ three, plus one draw.

Based in Dagenham, in the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham, the club was formed in 1992 through a merger between Redbridge Forest and Dagenham.

The club can trace back its ancestry to 1881 as Redbridge Forest was an amalgamation of three of the amateur game's most famous clubs, Ilford, Leytonstone and Walthamstow Avenue.

Between the clubs they won the FA Trophy once, FA Amateur Cup seven times, Isthmian League 20 times, Athenian League six times, Essex Senior Cup 26 times and London Senior Cup 23 times.

Tony Roberts, the club’s record appearance holder with 507 games over 10 years, is the only goalkeeper in the history of the FA Cup to have scored a goal from open play. He netted against Basingstoke Town in October 2001, it was a fourth qualifying round.

The highest ever scoreline in the first leg of a play off game is now held by Dagenham & Redbridge, who defeated Morecambe 6–0 on 16 May 2010, although they could not build on this afterwards with a 2–1 defeat in the second leg.

The Daggers also hold the record for highest scoring penalty shootout in professional football history, defeating Leyton Orient in the second round of the Football League Trophy 14–13, 27 penalties in total, on 8 September 2011.

This was later equalled, but not bettered, by Liverpool who beat Middlesbrough in a League Cup penalty shoot out by the same score in September 2014.

In addition, they hold the joint highest aggregate score in a League Cup match, with 12 – On 12 August 2014, Dagenham & Redbridge drew 6–6 after extra time at home with Brentford in the first round of the League Cup. They went on to lose 4–2 on penalties.

Dagenham have no new injury worries, though manager Wayne Burnett may decide to change his personnel following last weekend’s 3-1 defeat at Barnet which left them in the drop zone.

Burnett took off Ashley Hemmings and Nicholas Hamalainen at half-time at The Hive as Zavon Hines and Jodi Jones were brought on.

Hines is yet to complete 90 minutes since a serious knee injury in February 2014 and will be pushing for a start, as well as Jones, who scored Dagenham's consolation goal at Barnet with a well-struck free-kick.

Meanwhile Notts travel south after back-to-back home wins and manager Ricardo Moniz has players returning from injury.

Summer signing Rob Milsom is back in training after injuring a knee during pre-season while fellow midfielder Kyle De Silva and defender Taylor McKenzie are also working their way back to full fitness.
