Netherland’s domestic league cup KNVB Beker semi-finals sees Go Ahead Eagles take on PSV Eindhoven at the De Adelaarshorst stadium (Deventer). Match day schedules for 2nd March 2022 at 22:00 EAT.
Go Ahead Eagles is not one of the best teams in the Eredivisie and they have been going through a rough run in the last couple of weeks. Their poor performance has put the team 14th position on the league table with only 23 points from their matches. The team has been on a winless streak in the last nine before last weekend.
Kees van Wonderen’s side come into this fixture coming off 2-1 Eredivisie success over Ajax. In that game, Go Ahead Eagles had 29% possession, seven shots with four of them on target and goals scored by Iñigo Córdoba (18′) and Philippe Rommens (45′). Ajax got 20 shots with four of them on target and a goal by Steven Berghuis (64′).
PSV Eindhoven stands second on the Eredivisie league table with 52 points from their matches and has now turned their attention to the KNVB Beker, where they will be looking to progress to the finals after getting knocked out in the quarter-finals by eventual winners Ajax last season. Roger Schmidt’s team has put together a six-match unbeaten streak in all competitions, two of those games being played against Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Europa Conference League.
Rood-witten heads into this fixture following 1-2 Eredivisie win vs Sparta Rotterdam in their most recent fixture. In that game, PSV Eindhoven add 66% possession, 21 shots with nine of them on target and goals scored by Mauro Júnior (59′) and Ritsu Dōan (67′). Sparta Rotterdam got 12 shots with four of them on target and a goal by Lennart Thy (32′).
