HARDENBERG, Netherlands (Interstat) — HHC will host Barendrecht in Hardenberg on Tuesday, Sept. 22, 2026, for a KNVB Beker Women match in the Netherlands. The cup fixture will mark a meeting between a home side opening its competitive season and a visiting team seeking to build on an early win.

HHC enters the match with a 0-0 record across all competitions. The home team has not yet played a competitive fixture this season, so the KNVB Beker Women contest will be its first chance to establish rhythm, test its squad and pursue progress in the Dutch knockout competition.

Barendrecht arrives with a 1-0 record across all competitions. Its most recent result was a 2-1 victory at HFC on Saturday, Aug. 22, 2026. That win gave Barendrecht a positive start and provided match sharpness before the trip to Hardenberg.

The KNVB Beker Women brings together clubs from across the Netherlands for a national cup competition. HHC will look to use its home setting in a one-off match, while Barendrecht will aim to carry its early-season form into the cup and secure a place in the next round.

After the cup match, Barendrecht is scheduled to return to Tweede Divisie play. AFC is set to visit Barendrecht on Saturday, Oct. 17, 2026. Kloetinge will travel to Barendrecht on Saturday, Nov. 21, 2026. Barendrecht will host HFC on Saturday, Jan. 16, 2027. Barendrecht is then scheduled to visit AFC on Saturday, Mar. 20, 2027, and Kloetinge on Saturday, Apr. 24, 2027. Those league fixtures will follow the cup encounter and continue Barendrecht’s season across domestic competitions.

The listed run includes home matches against AFC, Kloetinge and HFC, followed by away trips to AFC and Kloetinge. The sequence begins in October and stretches into late April 2027. The cup match against HHC stands before that league run and offers a different challenge from the Tweede Divisie schedule.

Barendrecht’s cup match at HHC comes after its Aug. 22 league win and before the October return to Tweede Divisie action. The club’s next listed fixture after the cup tie is AFC’s visit to Barendrecht on Oct. 17, 2026. That gap places added importance on the cup tie as a competitive outing before the league schedule resumes.

HHC will begin its campaign with the cup match and will seek to manage the step into competitive play against an opponent that already has a match behind it. The home side will rely on its setting, preparation and support as it opens the season. Barendrecht will look to balance cup ambitions with its longer league schedule.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a final score of HHC 1, Barendrecht 0. Interstat’s ELO system projects HHC with a 62.5 percent probability to win.
