Match begins: 15:45 (UTC)
Venue: Philips Stadion (35000 seats)

A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The PSV fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and ADO Den Haag's 15th place in the table will show on the pitch.

It's no vacation for neither PSV nor ADO Den Haag as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting ADO Den Haag have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 5-7-19 (win-draw-loss) from 31 matches.

PSV form and stats

Perfect Eredivisie season at home so far for PSV 2 wins from 2 appearances.

Happy days for PSV in their previous game, a Europa League match away at Omonia Nicosia that ended with a 2-1 victory. Prior to that, an away loss at Vitesse in the Eredivisie.

A late climax in the match against Omonia Nicosia as the winning goal came two minutes into overtime; scored by Donyell Malen.

The manager R. Schmidt will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to PAOK in only four days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the PSV at home in the league. 4 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

ADO Den Haag form and stats

Things could have gone better for ADO Den Haag in their Eredivisie away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

There were no winners in Haag's previous match, a KNVB Beker home game that ended 1-1 vs Sparta Rotterdam (after extra-time, 5-3 on penalties) (placed 17th). A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting AZ Alkmaar in the Eredivisie.

With the home team given a winning probability of about 80% by the bookmakers, any positive result for the visitors would be a surprise. Checking earlier matches with similar odds with Haag as the away team, we found one results. Statistics from these were one away win, zero draws and zero defeats. The outsiders lost zero of these games by at least two goals.

ADO Den Haag have scored 4 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. For Haag, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): PSV won seven games, three matches ended with a draw and ADO Den Haag has zero wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: eight / two
