The visiting PSV side should be favourites in this visit to FC Emmen, as the away team holds a 13 point advantage from their 14 league games this season.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Europa League. That game was also an away game, at Sporting CP. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
