FRIDAY 4th SEPTEMBER 2026 – 19:00 BST
🇳🇱 EERSTE DIVISIE – WEEK FIVE ⚽
My second favourite league in world football fires up mostly on Friday and Monday nights — the Kitchen Champion Division (Keuken Kampioen Divisie) and yes, it’s sponsored by a kitchen company. This league is so profitable, the strikers always turn up the heat in the box and cook up goals. I’ll stop… maybe.
Anyway, every Friday on TotalDutchFootball.com I’ll be baking a fresh batch of bets from this league. Goals are usually overflowing from the pan. Defences get burnt far too easily, while the midfielders and forwards stay sharp as knives. For forks sake, let’s get into it.

GOALSCORER TREBLE
Something I have found profitable over the years is lumping three of the most in-form strikers into a treble as long as the price is right.
Ferdy Druijf of Almere City knows this league very well and has started the season on fire. He has scored five goals in the first four games and tonight against Jong Ajax, who have conceded 14 in four games, he looks in good stead to add to his tally. I wouldn’t be surprised if either Emre Unuvar or Diego Pugno for Ajax get on the scoresheet also, they have scored five and four goals themselves in four games respectively.
Heracles, my favourite to win the division this season, has saw Jean Paul N’Djoli and Tristan Van Glist score the majority of their 16 goals. Van Glist is the designated penalty taker and a bigger price and that is the only reason why I have stuck him in here between the pair. N’Djoli has scored six in four games but failed to get on the scoresheet last week in the 3-1 away win against FC Eindhoven – Van Glist did. He has scored in all four games and have five goals in his account.
Last but no means least, Moroccan striker Naoufal Bannis looks too good to be at Vitesse Arnhem this season. He has also scored five and one assist across the four games, failing to score in just one, so he grabbed two braces against Jong Utrecht and last week versus FC Den Bosch. Now entering his second season with the Arnhem side, he may just be hitting a purple patch after just nine goals in 31 outings last year but he looks the business this year indeed.
MORE GOALS, GOALS, GOALS
So I’ve gone for Over 2.5 Goals and Over 3.5 Goals in each of the games this evening in two accas. Reason being this lands, quite often, more often than the odds suggest.
Tonight’s fixtures only covers a total of six games. Last week we had seven and ALL seven games hit three goals or more and only two fixtures missing out on the four goals or more. There was six games on Week 2 and only one game ended with two goals, all the others were over.
For Over 2.5 we are getting 8.64 for all six games to hit the mark and for the Over 3.5 were are getting 68.13. I have stuck a point on the three goals or more acca and half a point on the four or more and lets see if we can hit a few of these in the coming months.
HERACLES VS. DE GRAAFSCHAP
Like I mentioned earlier, Heracles were my pick to win the KKD before a ball was kicked, and after their storming start you can still grab 3.75 at Bet365. You might want to slip into an accumulator if that’s your bag. But tonight, De Graafschap head to the Asito Stadion, where around 12,000 fans should be treated to yet another goal fest.
Heracles’ season so far reads like a highlight reel. A 4–3 thriller away at VVV on opening night, a 3–2 home win over Den Bosch, six goals fired past Jong FC Utrecht in week three (6-1), and a tidy 3–1 victory away at FC Eindhoven last weekend. De Graafschap, meanwhile, have been leaking goals all over the shop, making this a scary game for them.
Their campaign opened with a 1–1 draw against Helmond Sport, followed by a 5–2 home defeat to Jong AZ (who didn’t use any Eredivisie regulars). Then came a 2–1 loss to VVV and, last week, heavy 4–1 beating at home by Almere City.
Heracles -1 sits at 2.10 with Bet365 and I’m putting a point on it. If you fancy pushing the boat out on the -2, I wouldn’t advise you against it. De Graafschap have already been hammered twice this season.If you joining me with this selections, good luck.
