FC Dordrecht vs Heracles
Dutch Eerste Divisie
Date: 5 May 2023, Friday
Kick-off at 19:00 UK / 20:00 CET
Venue: Matchoholic Stadion (Dordrecht).
Heracles mathematically secured promotion to Eredivisie seven days ago when they eased past Jong PSV 3-0 at their Erve Asito.
John Lammers’ men are now ten points above third-placed Almere City with just three games left to play.
They will still be chasing section leaders PEC Zwolle who are three points away atop the standings in the battle for the title although the main goal for the season has already been accomplished.
Heracles will search for their fourth win on the bounce in the Eerste Divisie on Friday evening when they visit Matchoholic Stadion to take on bottom-half FC Dordrecht in Gameweek No 36.
Dordrecht will come into this off the back of a tough 4-0 defeat at the hands of PEC Zwolle as they allowed three goals inside the opening 25 minutes of play seven days ago on the road.
Nevertheless, it is important to mention that Dordrecht have kept three consecutive clean sheets in front of the home fans.
They are now up against the league’s deadliest attacking line and it will be very interesting to see whether they will be able to offer at least some sort of resistance on Friday night.
Dordrecht vs Heracles Head-to-head
- Heracles destroyed FC Dordrecht 8-1 in the return game played in December last year in Almelo.

Dordrecht vs Heracles Prediction
The gulf in quality between these two rivals is huge and we can hardly predict anything else but a commanding away win. FC Dordrecht did keep three straight clean sheets at Matchoholic Stadion but this streak will count for little when they come face to face with the best attacking line in the competition.
We expect the visitors to finish the job in the first half of the contest which is why we will back them to go on the half-time break with at least a two-goal advantage. This scenario is priced up at the 3.50 odds. We also like Heracles to win & Over 3.5 goals FT pick at the 2.40 odds.
