National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's ACV or USV Hercules that keep their silverware dream alive.
It's no vacation for neither ACV nor USV Hercules as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
ACV form and stats
ACV was eliminated in the 2nd preliminary round last season in the KNVB Beker.Seven points from three Tweede Divisie home games is a great start for ACV, who are hoping to build on that form here at Univé Sportpark.
The spoils were shared in ACV's previous game, also at home. Visiting Noordwijk travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. Spijkerman was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Noordwijk after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
Heartbreak before that as ACV lost 1-3 at Almere City II's place.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier ACV matches with similar probabilities have ended with 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats (from 4 games).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for ACV as they are travelling to their away game against Kozakken Boys in the Tweede Divisie. That match is three days after this one.
The ACV manager Jalving has got the team scoring with 7 from 3 home games in the league.
USV Hercules form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Berkum in order to reach 2nd preliminary round of KNVB Beker. USV Hercules's mission in KNVB Beker last season failed in the 1st round.Hercules lost away at Eemdijk (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.
A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs DVS '33.A new game in only three days for USV Hercules, the Derde Divisie: Zaterdag home match versus IJsselmeervogels. Busy days.
