Bury vs Dagenham and Redbridge preview - Loanees shake up Bury

Bury will be boosted by the addition of loan signings Rob Milsom and Adam El-Abd for Saturday's Sky Bet League Two clash with Dagenham.

Midfielder Milsom arrives with plenty of experience from spells at Aberdeen and Rotherham, while Egyptian centre-half El-Abd is another proven performer to come in from Bristol City.

James Poole, Joe Thompson and Joe Widdowson are all unavailable after leaving on a temporary basis, although the latter will not be eligible to feature against the Shakers following a switch to this weekend's opponents.

Ryan Lowe lasted just less than an hour when returning from a hernia problem in last week's loss to Newport, but Hallam Hope missed that match with a slight hamstring strain

Dagenham will welcome back Matthew Partridge for the trip to Lancashire.

The 20-year-old defender sat out last weekend's win at Carlisle after collecting five yellow cards but will be available should boss Wayne Burnett shuffle his pack.

However, the Daggers boss switched to a back three for that win at Brunton Park and, after securing a first league victory in seven, the 43-year-old could opt to stick with the same XI.

Luke Howell will serve the final game of a three-match ban while Zavon Hines edges closer to a return after stepping up his recovery from a long-term knee injury with a return to training.
