An important duel in the bottom section of the Eerste Divisie, with both Jong Utrecht and FC Dordrecht experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 20th place.
- Jong Utrecht have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- FC Dordrecht has the fewest scored goals (18) in Eerste Divisie
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Jong Utrecht form and stats
Jong Utrecht have collected 12 points from their Eerste Divisie home games so far after 4-0-7. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Utrecht to get some points in this home game.
In their previous game, the manager A. Plugboer led his Utrecht to a defeat in the Eerste Divisie match away at NEC. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Sportcomplex Zoudenbalch. Heartbreak before that as Utrecht lost 1-2 at Roda JC Kerkrade's place.
Thijmen Nijhuis had a busy but productive day in the NEC match. Despite making seven saves the loss could not be prevented.
Jong Utrecht are traveling soon after this match as the Eerste Divisie match at Jong AZ awaits in four days.
Utrecht has scored 15 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 19 goals have been conceded.
FC Dordrecht form and stats
FC Dordrecht, who have the fewest scored goals (18) in Eerste Divisie, have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Eerste Divisie, after 1-0-10 (11 played). Three consecutive losses in away matches means FC Dordrecht are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
K. Jansen was the last player to score for the away team. Dordrecht haven't scored a league goal in the last 276 minutes.
Dordrecht's previous game was their home loss versus Roda JC Kerkrade (0-5). A 0-3 defeat away at Almere City before that.
Dordrecht lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.
The attacking power of Dordrecht when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 11 league matches away. There are big problems for the Dordrecht defense as they have conceded 38 goals in 11 away games.
