Sittard vs Jong PSV Prediction & Betting tips
The time has come: the last hurdle of Fortuna Sittard on the way to the Eredivisie. If the Limburgers win at home from Jong PSV, we will see Fortuna again at the highest level next year for the first time since 2002.
Fortuna Sittard:
Heel Sittard is upside down this week. For the first time since the relegation to the Jupiler League the stadium is sold out again and the party on the Sittardse Markt is already being prepared. Fortuna can return to the Eredivisie on Saturday.
Young Ajax is at the top and has the best papers for the championship, but because the team from Amsterdam is not allowed to promote, the second place for promotion is sufficient. When Fortuna wins in-house from Jong PSV, second place Kevin Hofland’s team can not escape. If there is loss of point from NEC against FC Dordrecht, or a victory with only one goal difference, a draw is enough. Fortuna is therefore on pole position.
Looking at the recent form of Fortuna can only conclude that only the possible pressure of promotion can throw a spanner in the works. Fortuna won seven of her last eight games and has been unbeaten since mid-February.
Against Jong PSV probably the same names have to do it again. Only in the beginning Hofland has to make a choice between Stefan Askovski and André Vidigal. The rest of the names certainly resemble their place.
Jong PSV:
Jong PSV can, although no longer plays anything, still have a big mark on the championship race in the Jupiler League. With a result from Jong PSV in Sittard, the flag may be played out in Amsterdam and Nijmegen, on condition that Jong Ajax and NEC win their own matches.
Apart from that, a draw in Sittard would be a crowning achievement in an excellent season for Jong PSV. The men of Dennis Haar are in a good fifth place with the same number of points as number four de Graafschap. In theory, the second team from the City of Light can still increase a place in the ranking.
It is difficult to estimate which names will be in the field on Saturday night. Because the main team of the Eindhoven team is already champion, some players from Young PSV may be able to smell the big work. Last match of PSV against Roda JC, among others, made Mauro Júnior, Sam Lammers, Albert Gudmundsson, Armando Obispo, Eloy Room and Paolo Rosario play minutes. Some of these names may be part of the selection of the main force. In addition, PSV under-19 is still in the race for the championship, so that names like Cody Gakpo and Jordan Tezé might go missing.
