📰 Team News: Heracles Almelo

We are thinking that Heraclieden will probably go for a 3-4-1-2 formation for this one, beginning the first half with Remko Pasveer, Mike Te Wierik, Jannes Wieckhoff, Ivan Mesik, Mimeirhel Benita, Ajdin Hrustic, Rhys Bozinovski, D. van der, Naci Ünüvar, Lequincio Zeefuik and Luka Kulenovic.

📰 Team News: PSV Eindhoven

We are inclined to think that Rood-witten will likely utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup, choosing Matej Kovar, Sergino Dest, Jerdy Schouten, Yarek Gasiorowski, Mauro Junior, Paul Wanner, Joey Veerman, Dennis Man, Ismael Saibari, Ivan Perisic and Myron Boadu.

✨ Prediction

We’re thinking that PSV Eindhoven will, in all probability, dominate possession and create several successful chances.

At the same time, Heracles Almelo could well find it tough to score although we reckon that they could well end up being dangerous at times, too.

We can therefore see a fairly comfortable 1-3 margin for PSV Eindhoven at the end of the match.
