The Erevidisie clash between RKC Waalwijk and PEC Zwolle on Saturday was called off due to positive coronavirus tests.

Four RKC players and two staff members tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 24 hours and eight players have been forced to quarantine.

RKC revealed the decision to postpone the match was made following consultation between the KNVB's union doctor, the RKC club doctor and the public health service.

A new date for the fixture will be announced as soon as possible.

The Eredivisie was the first major European league to end the 2019-20 season in April amid the pandemic.
