Woking invite Dagenham & Redbridge to The Laithwaite Community Stadium on Tuesday for this match in the Vanrama National League face off.

Woking

Woking’s performances have been up and down in the National League over the last five years, finishing from 20th to 5th. They will aim to reach the Playoff places once again after a disappointing season last year. The 2023/24 season saw them end the campaign in 17th place with 15 wins, 21 losses and 10 draws, totalling 55 points.

The Cardinals haven’t gotten off to the best of starts this season, losing both of their two games 1-0 and 0-2 against Altrincham and Gateshead respectively. Manager Michael Doyle will need to enstil some discipline into the side as in the first game of the season Dale Gorman received a second yellow card, forcing him off the pitch and in Woking’s second game Dion Kelly-Evans was brandished a straight red card after 14 minutes. Both of those players will now miss this game against Dagenham & Redbridge through suspension.

On a lighter note for Woking, they have faced off against Dagenham & Redbridge 13 times and have come out victorious on seven occasions, most recently on Round 44 of the 2023/24 National League season.

Dagenham & Redbridge

After being relegated from League Two back in the 2015/16 season, Dagenham & Redbridge have not been able to put together a season where they have had a chance to go back up since the season following the one they went down. Last year they finished one point and two places above their opponents in this match, Woking. Ending the season on 56 points, 14 wins, 18 losses and 14 draws.

They have started the season a lot better than Woking, looking like they will finish above them again with their current results. A 2-1 home win against Wealdstone was their fate in the opening game of the season followed by a 1-1 draw versus Rochdale away from home.

Across their last five games in all competitions, The Dagger have been finding the back of the net, scoring an impressive seven goals in that time frame. Defensively however it is a different story, their leaky back line has cost them a clean sheet for their last eight games and that doesn’t look like that’s changing in this game.

What’s the tip?

Our betting experts have gone with Both Teams To Score. Despite Woking being yet to score this season, they were 3-2 victors in their last meeting. Woking have always been good against Dagenham & Redbridge but it is too close to call a match victory. Neither team have managed to keep a clean sheet for a while and this match shouldn’t be the anomaly.
