Like Northampton, Dagenham & Redbridge have made a solid start to the League Two season with seven points from their five games to date.
Whereas the Cobblers have scored four and conceded four so far their next opponents have netted eight times but also let the same amount in.
'When you play expansive like we do, you're sometimes going to concede goals,' admitted manager Wayne Burnett after the 3-3 draw at Oxford United last weekend.
39 last week but showing no signs of slowing down, veteran striker Jamie Cureton joined the Daggers in the summer and has already scored three times for his new club to take his career tally to 261.
He was on the mark for Cheltenham against the Cobblers at the beginning of February while the last meeting between Dagenham and Northampton ended in a crucial 3-0 win for Chris Wilder's team in April.
