Analysis Heracles

Heracles is trying to repeat the feats that occurred only in the 2007/2008 editions, when it was a semi-finalist, and more recently in 2011/2012, when it was runner-up in the national cup. In this edition, the team has already gone through 3 phases: in the debut, on 10/30/2024, it beat Winterswijk (0-1) away from home. Then, on 12/18/2024, it drew (0-0) at home with NEC and the qualification only came with a (1-0) victory in extra time. In the last phase, on 01/16/2025, Heracles beat De Graafschap (0-2) away from home. Officially, the club is undefeated in 7 matches with 2 games won and 5 draws recorded. Interestingly, Heracles have drawn the last 6 clashes at their stadium and have not lost in the most recent 7 as they won the previous clash after the 6 draws. The last home defeat was on 20-10-2024, when they lost (3-4) to Ajax, in the 9th round of the 2024/2025 Eredivisie. In total, Heracles played 24 matches in the season with 6 wins, 10 draws, 8 losses, 27 goals scored and 37 goals conceded. Specifically as home team, there were 12 performances with 2 games won, 8 draws and 2 matches lost, in addition to 16 goals scored and 16 goals conceded. Coach Hendrie Krüzen may change the previous starting lineup, based on the 4-2-3-1 tactical scheme, but goalkeeper Fabian de Keijzer, one of the team's standouts (he played in 23 games and conceded 37 goals, curiously contributing with 1 assist in the Eredivisie), is expected to be present. German striker Mario Engels is the only player missing due to an injury suffered after the game on January 28, 2024, for the Eredivisie, a competition in which Heracles is 14th out of 18 competitors.

Confirmed Lineup: Fabian De Keijzer, Jannes Wieckhoff, Damon Mirani, Mats Rots, Ivan Mesik, Thomas Bruns, Jan Zamburek, Sem Scheperman, Juho Talvitie, Suf Podgoreanu, Luka Kulenović.
Coach: E. van de Looi.

Analysis Utrecht

Utrecht has a tradition in the KNVB Beker as it is a three-time champion with the victories of 1984/1985, 2002/2003 and 2003/2004, in addition to having reached the grand final on four other occasions. The team arrives from 5 unbeaten matches after 2 games won and 3 draws, and especially away from home it has not yet lost after 14 clashes with 10 wins and 4 draws after a total of 35 goals scored and 15 goals conceded. Overall, Utrecht played 24 matches with 15 wins, 6 draws, 3 losses, 52 goals scored and 35 goals conceded. In this edition of the cup, its debut took place on 31-10-2024, with a victory by (1-2) away from home against Lisse. On 18-12-2024, they achieved a historic rout by winning (0-8) away from home against AFC. In the round of 16, on 15-01-2025, they qualified with a comeback victory (1-2) away against RKC Waalwijk. Utrecht's last defeat came on 22-12-2024, when they lost (2-5) at home to Fortuna Sittard in the 2024/2025 Eredivisie, a competition in which they are in 3rd place and currently would have a place in next season's UEFA Champions League. Coach Ron Jans is expected to make changes to the previous starting lineup, based on the 4-2-3-1 tactical scheme. The absences continue to be Danish defender Niklas Vesterlund, German midfielder Can Bozdogan and forwards Noah Ohio and Miguel Rodríguez (the latter from Spain), all injured. Defender Mike van der Hoorn is expected to start after serving a league suspension and American midfielder Paxten Aaronson (scorer of 6 goals and 4 assists in 24 appearances) is also expected to feature.
