Betting suggestion:

Naturally, the market anticipates an easy and dominant victory for PSV against HFC. Considering this, despite the two recent losses and the high likelihood of PSV fielding a rotated squad for this KNVB Beker 2024/2025 opener, our recommendation is to back PSV on the Asian Handicap -1.5 at Half-Time. It’s worth noting that PSV has covered this bet in 7 of their last 10 home matches, and they are expected to do so again, given the vast gulf in quality between a UEFA Champions League participant and a team currently sitting 9th in the Tweede Divisie, the third tier of Dutch football.

Preview
The KNVB Beker 2024/2025 reaches the stage where the top Dutch clubs, those who have competed or are still competing in European tournaments this season, make their debut in the National Cup. From this point forward, the eventual champions will need to play and win five matches to lift the trophy. All rounds are decided in single-leg fixtures, with the grand final having a fixed venue: De Kuip Stadium in Rotterdam, which has hosted every final since 2011. In the event of a draw, the match proceeds to extra time, and if the deadlock persists, the winner will be decided through a penalty shootout. PSV will face HFC at the Philips Stadion in Eindhoven, with Erwin Blank officiating the match.
 

Analysis PSV

PSV is the third most successful club in KNVB Beker history, with 11 titles from 19 finals. The team enters this season's competition at this stage due to their participation in the UEFA Champions League. Interestingly, PSV arrives in their worst form of the season, having lost their last two matches: a 1-0 defeat away to Brest in France on 10 December 2024 and another 1-0 loss away to Heerenveen on 14 December 2024 in the Eredivisie 2024/2025, where they currently sit in 1st place. So far this season, PSV has played 23 matches, recording 16 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses, with an impressive 70 goals scored and 25 conceded. At home, they have been particularly strong, with 11 matches yielding 9 wins, 2 draws, 41 goals scored, and just 10 conceded. Manager Peter Bosz is expected to make several changes to his usual 4-3-3 starting lineup to rest key players. Nevertheless, it would be crucial to have midfielder Joey Veerman on the pitch. Veerman has been pivotal this season, contributing 1 goal and, more importantly, 5 assists in 13 appearances.
 

Confirmed Lineup: Joel Drommel, Fredrik Oppegard, Matteo Dams, Richard Ledezma, Armando Obispo, Joey Veerman, Guus Til, Jerdy Schouten, Ricardo Pepi, Ivan Perišić, Hirving Lozano.
Coach: P. Bosz.

Analysis HFC

Koninklijke HFC currently sits in 9th place in the Tweede Divisie 2024/2025, equivalent to the third tier of Dutch football. Despite their league position, they have an interesting history in the KNVB Beker, having finished as runners-up three times (1904, 1913, and 1915). In this year’s competition, HFC has already progressed past two rounds: they defeated Poortugaal 3-1 away from home in the opening round on 25 September 2024 and then knocked out Emmen, a second-division side, with a 1-0 home victory on 31 October 2024. So far this season, HFC has played 19 matches, recording 8 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses, with 25 goals scored and 21 conceded. On the road, they have been relatively balanced, with 10 matches resulting in 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses, scoring 15 goals and conceding 16. Manager Gertjan Tamerus is expected to field his strongest lineup, operating in a 3-5-2 formation. Special attention will be on goalkeeper Mitchel Michaelis, who is likely to face a busy evening against a strong PSV attack.

Confirmed Lineup: Mitchel Michaelis, Ruben Heeremans, Wessel Boer, Jacob Noordmans, Xander van den Berg, Gerry Vlak, Marijn Ploem, Jim Hulleman, Koen Tros, Rano Burger, Marios Lomis.
Coach: G. Tamerus.
