National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's FC Dordrecht or FC Utrecht that keep their silverware dream alive.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Dordrecht and FC Utrecht.
FC Dordrecht form and stats
Last season, Dordrecht's KNVB Beker journey ended in the 2nd round.The story so far in the Eerste Divisie for FC Dordrecht at their home stadium (Riwal Hoogwerkers Stadion) is 1 win, 2 draws and 1 defeat.
The fans are hoping that Dordrecht will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-7 away loss in the Eerste Divisie game against FC Volendam. Before that, Dordrecht drew at home versus Almere City.
As you see from the result above, Dordrecht suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
Dordrecht has scored 5 league goals at home this season, in 4 matches. FC Dordrecht have conceded 5 in these home matches.
FC Utrecht form and stats

Utrecht are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Eredivisie against FC Twente. A 0-0 draw at FC Groningen's stadium before that.
