Vitesse and PSV are both riding high in the Eredivisie with their 6th and 4th positions respectively. Expect a great game!
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Vitesse form and stats
When playing at home in the Eredivisie, Vitesse have managed 6 wins, 3 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 11 games.
A nice win for Vitesse last time playing, versus SC Heerenveen. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-2 with Oussama Tannane, Tim Matavz and Bryan Linssen (2) scoring for the victors. Preceding that match was a KNVB Beker defeat to Ajax (0-3).
As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (22 in 11 games), Vitesse's attacking play is working. On the other hand, Vitesse have conceded 13 goals.
PSV form and stats
Playing away, PSV have won 4 games, drawn 4 and suffered 4 defeats in the Eredivisie this season.
The PSV goalkeeper Lars Unnerstall is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 235 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
It's the second away game in a row for PSV, but there's smiles all around after the 3-0 victory versus ADO Den Haag (placed 17th) in the Eredivisie last time out. A home win before that, celebrating 3-0 vs Willem II.
PSV has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 19 goals from 12 games. As opposed to that, PSV have seen the ball go into their own net 15 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
PSV - Vitesse 5-0 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: zero - one - nine (Vitesse wins - draws - PSV wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six had two or less.Top Goalscorers
