Oct 18th features a match where Roda JC Kerkrade will play host to Heracles in a meeting of these two KNVB Beker teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 14 degrees, which is great football weather. In their last match, Roda JC Kerkrade recorded a 4-1 win against VVV-Venlo. Sven Braken struck first for VVV-Venlo in the 7th minute on a feed from Johansson, then Romano Postema tied it up for Roda JC Kerkrade in the 11th minute Finally they completed the comback in the 64th minute on a goal by Dylan Vente to cap off a wild match. Roda JC Kerkrade should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 18 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Heracles recorded a 2-3 loss against PEC Zwolle. Gervane Kastaneer struck first for PEC Zwolle in the 27th minute on a feed from Davy van den Berg, then Lennart Thy added another in the 34th minute. Heracles looks to continue their winning ways, having won 7 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Emil Hansson has been the most prolific scorer on Heracles in the last five matches with three goals. Dylan Vente has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, the attacker has scored six goals for Roda JC Kerkrade.
