RKC vs Heracles Almelo H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

On April 6, RKC were hosting Heracles Almelo in the Eredivisie of Netherlands. The match concluded with both teams sharing the points in a 0-0 draw.

4 months after their last face-off in Eredivisie, RKC and Heracles Almelo prepare to meet again. In their last match, neither side could break the deadlock, ending in a 2-2 draw. RKC head into this game after their recent draw with AZ on April 1 in the Eredivisie. Turning their attention to defensive solidity could be the key to turning draws into victories, as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last five matches.

In their last match, Heracles Almelo emerged victorious against Twente, giving them confidence as they approach this game. However, their defense has shown cracks, having conceded goals in each of their last four away matches.

In this Eredivisie showdown, the spotlight will fall on the players who have been pivotal for RKC and Heracles Almelo throughout the campaign. The attacking efforts of RKC, carefully orchestrated by Henk Fraser, have been driven by Richonell Margaret and Oskar Zawada, their top finisher, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. RKC’s top scorer in Eredivisie, Zawada, has nine goals this season, while Margaret remains their top assist provider in the competition with six. Supporting them are Yassin Oukili, Mohamed Ihattaren and Richard van der Venne, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to RKC’s attack.

Meanwhile, Heracles Almelo’s offensive unit, under Erwin Van de Looi’s guidance, has leaned on Luka Kulenovic, their main scorer, and Brian De Keersmaecker, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. In Eredivisie, Kulenovic has been Heracles Almelo’s standout scorer with eight goals, while Engels has been their leading creator in the competition with four assists. Heracles Almelo have also relied on Jizz Hornkamp, Suf Podgoreanu and Thomas Bruns to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
