Dagenham and Redbridge vs Morecambe

Posted Friday, November 06, 2015 by PA

Dagenham & Redbridge could give some fresh faces a chance to impress in the FA Cup tie against Morecambe.

The Daggers are bottom of Sky Bet League Two with no league win since September, but beat Basildon United 6-0 in the Essex Senior Cup on Tuesday night.

Forward Matt McClure, who started on the bench for the league defeat to Luton, scored a hat-trick in the midweek cup win, while midfielder Andre Boucaud also returned to the starting XI to captain the side to a long-overdue first home victory of the season.

Winger Jake Mulraney also impressed and so could come into contention for the cup tie having extended his loan spell from QPR.

Morecambe boss Jim Bentley expects no new injury problems but may seek to shuffle his side after two League Two defeats in a row.

The Shrimpers' recent run of good form came to an end in defeat to Leyton Orient before a 2-0 reversal at Plymouth last week.

Winger Lee Molyneaux and striker Paul Mullin are among those pressing for starting places after coming on from the bench in last week's defeat at Home Park.

Adam Dugdale (foot) and Peter Murphy (knee) remain some weeks away from a return.
