Dagenham & Redbridge vs West Ham score prediction

Friendly matches tend to provide goals and you'd imagine that this one will. West Ham have the majority of their starters fit and available, allowing them to put fifth-tier Dagenham and Redbridge to the sword.

Even if Lopetegui chooses a youthful lineup, the Hammers should have more than enough quality to batter the Daggers.
