Prediction: 4-0
Ermelo
Vitesse and DVS ’33 Ermelo face each other at GelreDome in a David-vs-Goliath clash. The Vitas aim to build on back-to-back wins over Zwolle and Feyenoord, and they must be high on spirits ahead of the Dutch Cup clash. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Belgian rising star Lois Openda, who scored the winner against the Rotterdammers at the weekend.
Goalkeeper Daan Reiziger remains on the sidelines with injury for the hosts. The lower-league side, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Achilles Veen. DVS ’33 Ermelo faced no difficulties in the previous round, but they will have a mountain to climb against Vitesse, who are a real force to be reckoned with at home. It has to be noted that the two teams have never met before in the KNVB Beker.
Highlighted Player (Riechedly Bazoer):
Despite playing for PSV during his youth career, Riechedly Bazoer made his Eredivisie debut with Ajax. The central midfielder who was born on 12 October, 1996 in Utrecht, scored his first goal for Ajax on 15 February, 2015 in a 4-2 victory over Twente.
Four days later he made his European debut with the Amsterdammers, taking part in a 1-0 win over Legia in the Europa League. Bazoer scored five goals in 29 league appearances for Ajax in the 2015/2016 season, but he failed to win the domestic trophy with Frank de Boer’s troops.
Speaking of his international career, Bazoer has two caps for Netherlands U21 team and he made his debut for the first team on 13 November, 2015 against Wales. It has to be noted that he came as a late substitute in the 3-2 victory over the Dragons. Back in 2012 the right-footed midfielder won the UEFA U17 European Championship with the Dutch national team.
