PSV coach Phillip Cocu doesn't have any noteworthy injury problems ahead of Sunday's game as defender Abel Tamata is the only absentee.
Cocu is likely to give Atiba Hutchinson the nod ahead of Stanislav Manolev at right-back, while Jeremain Lens will probably have to settle for a spot on the bench as well.
Heracles trainer Peter Bosz meanwhile has his full squad available as well for Sunday's match, meaning that attacking midfielder Marko Vejinovic could miss out on a starting berth.
| DID YOU KNOW? |
PSV have kept only one clean sheet in their last 20 official games.
- The Eindhoven side have made it to the final of the Dutch cup on 15 occasions so far, winning the trophy eight times.
- With four goals in four appearances, Tim Matavz is PSV's leading goal scorer in the KNVB Beker this term.
- It's the first time ever that Heracles have reached the final of the KNVB Beker.
- The Almelo side have kept a clean sheet in four out of their five cup games in 2011-12.
- Heracles coach Peter Bosz has won the Dutch cup three times during his career.
The Eindhoven side start the match as the sky-high favourites, and really should be able to bring home their first trophy since the 2008 Eredivisie title. They were held to a 1-1 draw in their last match against Heracles, but dominated play throughout that game and deserved more. PSV's attacking potency should be too much for the Almelo club's vulnerable defence on Sunday, and even though Cocu's men are by no means impressive at the back either, a win for PSV seems to be on the cards.
