Match preview

Dongen host JOS Watergraafsmeer in the first preliminary round of the KNVB Beker, with the home side entering the tie in formidable recent form. Dongen have built strong momentum through August, securing three consecutive victories against Zwaluwen, EVV, and Gemert while displaying sharp attacking efficiency with ten goals scored across that three-game stretch.

JOS Watergraafsmeer arrive having had a much longer layoff from competitive fixtures, with their last competitive outings coming in late May where they suffered consecutive defeats against NEO, conceding six goals across two legs.
