Dagenham & Redbridge 1/2 to beat Wealdstone in Saturday’s National League showdown

Competition: National League

Market: Dagenham & Redbridge win

Odds: 1/2 @ 888sport

Looking to extend on what has been a stellar start to the 2021/22 National League campaign, a high-flying Dagenham & Redbridge will host Wealdstone on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, once again impressing last weekend, Dagenham & Redbridge find themselves enjoying what has been a stellar purple patch. Opening the 2021/22 campaign last month, the Daggers have won each of their three National League matchups and they’re one of just three sides who boast a 100% record so far this season. Last seen picking up a 2-0 victory against Barnet on the road, the fifth-tier outfit have now scored over 1.5 goals in each of their three wins. Smelling what is a golden chance to extend on their winning run this weekend, it should also be noted that Saturday’s hosts have gained a reputation for their continued success on home soil. Including a 4-2 victory against Bromley on August 28th, Dagenham have collected a hugely impressive 16 points from just their last six National League home fixtures continuing on from last season.

As for the visitors, while Wealdstone might have managed to get themselves off the mark last weekend, they are once again tipped as a leading pick in the relegation scrap. Opening the 2021/22 campaign with back-to-back 2-0 and 2-1 defeats against Woking and Chesterfield, they have picked up just a single point from any of their first three National League matchups. Also recording just a single goal so far this season, this weekend’s guests have shown the same issues that haunted them for large spells last year. Continuing on from last season, Wealdstone have managed to win just one of their last 14 straight National League contests. Given what has been a huge recent gulf in class between the two sides, we’re backing what should be a routine home victory on Saturday afternoon.
