FC Dordrecht form and stats

Let's have a look at how FC Dordrecht performed last season in the Eerste Divisie: They landed a 17th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 9 draws and 19 defeats. In total they scored 53 and conceded {77 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 3 and lost 12 with 25/46 goals scored/conceded.

Dordrecht's last game was the home draw against NAC Breda (2-2). Drawing 2-2 against NAC Breda after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Santoni needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting FC Oss.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where FC Dordrecht played away with similar odds. This revealed 6 games. The visitors overcame the odds to win 1 time, 1 were draw and the home team won as expected 4 times.

Head 2 Head

Willem II have avoided a loss in the last 6 matches (5-1-0) facing FC Dordrecht.
