History of the Grimsby Town v Dagenham & Redbridge fixture

Dag. & Red. face a trip to Grimsby Town at Blundell Park on Saturday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Out of their two previous meetings, the Daggers have won one, and drawn the other.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in January 2009, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Grimsby Town's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Mighty Mariners have scored 4, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Dag. & Red.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. While the Daggers have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Grimsby Town are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League Two with a return of just 14 points from their 19 games thus far. Dag. & Red. are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 33 points from 19 games.
