DEADLINE day loan signing Daniel Carr is expected to make his Dagenham & Redbridge debut against York City tomorrow having already scored at Bootham Crescent this season.

Carr, 20, grabbed Mansfield’s equaliser in a 1-1 draw with the Minstermen back in October, having been farmed out to the Stags by parent club Huddersfield for a month earlier in the campaign.

He was the visitors’ man of the match that afternoon and went close to winning the game for the Field Mill side.

Carr’s goal proved to be his only one in four outings for the Stags but he also netted once in five appearances at Fleetwood last term and has a couple of Championship substitute run-outs for Huddersfield under his belt.

The former Dulwich Hamlet striker is poised to make his first Daggers start alongside 39-year-old Jamie Cureton with last season’s leading 13-goal marksman Rhys Murphy having joined Sky Bet League One outfit Oldham for an undisclosed fee this week.

Ex-Arsenal reserve Murphy has only netted once in 11 games this campaign, having been injured up until November.

The evergreen Cureton netted his 267th professional goal during Saturday’s 3-1 home win over his previous club Cheltenham.

He is the Essex club’s top scorer this season with nine goals but his effort at the weekend ended his longest run of games without hitting the target since Boxing Day 2011, having endured a seven-match barren spell.

Dagenham boss Wayne Burnett has also extended 18-year-old Watford striker Alex Jubiak’s loan stay at Victoria Road to the end of the season after he got the hosts’ third goal last weekend having come on as a substitute.

Captain Abu Ogogo, meanwhile, is pushing for a recall to the starting line-up having been used from the bench during the last two games following two-and-a-half months on the sidelines with knee ligament damage.

But former West Ham and Bradford City winger Zavon Hines might need to be more patient as he continues his comeback from a cruciate injury.

Hines played his first game in just under a year last month during an Essex Senior Cup tie but is unlikely to feature in North Yorkshire, while centre-back Matt Partridge is also nursing a hamstring problem.

Ex-Minstermen midfielder Andre Boucaud is expected to be in the first XI, though, having played 25 games and scored once following his summer move from Notts County.

But Boucaud’s ex-City team-mate Ashley Chambers has lost his place in the side for the last three matches, having netted three times in 28 matches this term.

Joss Labadie, who scored both goals when Dagenham beat City 2-0 in September, is also currently warming the bench.

Sixth-bottom Dagenham will go into the game just two points clear of the relegation zone and with only one win from their last nine away fixtures – a 2-0 triumph over Bury in November.

But Burnett’s team have lost just one of their last six matches, holding fifth-placed Southend to a goalless draw during that time and beating Bury 1-0 to complete a double over the seventh-placed Shakers.

Dagenham (probable): Cousins, Batt, Obileye, Doe, Widdowson, Howell, Boucaud, Bingham, Hemmings, Carr, Cureton.
