With their 36 point advantage in the league table, NEC fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against FC Dordrecht.
- FC Dordrecht have the fewest scored goals (35) in Eerste Divisie

FC Dordrecht form and stats
There's been little loot from FC Dordrecht's travels as they have only collected 12 points from 18 away games in the Eerste Divisie. FC Dordrecht, who have the fewest scored goals (35) in Eerste Divisie, only have 4 wins to counter their 14 defeats and 0 draws. With the Dordrecht losing streak of six defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Dordrecht seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Dordrecht have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 294 minutes ago. R. Musaba was the goal scorer.
Home advantage was not enough for FC Dordrecht in their previous game, as they lost their Eerste Divisie-match, hosting SC Cambuur, 0-1. Prior to that match, the Dordrecht manager J. Zoutman faced defeat when travelling to Excelsior and losing 0-3.
Dordrecht goalkeeper Max van Herk had a great day against SC Cambuur, but despite making seven saves the loss could not be avoided.
The visitors have scored 15 goals from 18 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. There are big problems for the FC Dordrecht defense as they have conceded 54 goals in 18 away games.
