WHO ARE THE SHOTS PLAYING?
Shots are back in action on the road, taking on Dagenham & Redbridge at the Chigwell Construction Stadium on Tuesday night. The clash is Shots’ first on the road since the 24th of January, when Aldershot ran out 3-0 victors over Maidstone
HOW HAVE THEY DONE THIS SEASON?
Dagenham are sitting in 11th place, having picked up 42 points in 31 games this season.

LAST TIME OUT:
Dagenham were 2-0 victors at the EBB the last time the two sides met. Josh Walker got a brace in a fixture which the Shots looked the most comfortable, but Dagenham were the more lethal as they made more of their chances than the Shots.
