Recent respective form guides

Chester City's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Blues have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

Dag. & Red.'s away form is none too clever either, remaining unbeaten in the last six, though five of those have been draws. The Daggers's have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 7 goals for and 6 against.

Chester City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 26 points from 33 matches. Dag. & Red. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola League Two, picking up 48 from their 33 games so far.
