PSV, Recent FormThe 1-0 home defeat to AZ will not have sat easily with the PSV squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.
Their boss Ruud van Nistelrooy has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 14 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 7 goals conceded across those matches. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. van Nistelrooy will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They have had an excellent run of form at Philips Stadion recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
On an individual basis, Cody Gakpo will be looking to get on the scoresheet again at Philips Stadion having scored 5 goals in PSV's last 6 home games in the league.
Sparta Rotterdam, Recent FormA 1-1 draw and a point gained against FC Twente in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Sparta Rotterdam last time out.
Maurice Steijn will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 14 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have lost 6 goals during those same matches. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away games. It's fair to say they have produced a number of good defensive performances away from home, with 3 clean sheets in their last 6 matches on the road.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Arno Verschueren will be hoping to create problems for PSV in this one, having scored 4 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Sparta Rotterdam.
Last time these two teams met in the league it resulted in an unsurprising 1-2 win for PSV.
PSV will be confident of finding the net in this one against De Kasteelheren, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 27 encounters between the two sides.
PSV will be looking to continue their winning streak against Sparta having won in their last 4 meetings in the league.
Mauro Júnior has scored in each of PSV's last 2 league games against Sparta.
PSV manager Ruud van Nistelrooy has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Olivier Boscagli (Knee), Jarrad Branthwaite (Physical discomfort), Luuk de Jong (Muscle), Mauro Júnior (Groin), Noni Madueke (Ankle), Marco van Ginkel (Hamstring) and Yorbe Vertessen (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
