Vitesse vs PSV Prediction & Betting tips
The numbers three and one of the rankings stand in the Dutch Eredivisie on Sunday afternoon. A win of Vitesse on headliner PSV would mean that the Arnhemmers approached the Eindhoven players on three points, but the Eindhoven players only went SC Heerenveen against this season.
Vitesse :
Where most Eredivisie clubs had cup commitments this week, Arnhem was in the hall of the home game against PSV this week. Vitesse was already switched off by Swift Amateur Club in the previous round, and so we knew at the start of the season that Vitesse would not be able to keep the cup in Arnhem. Of course, they would have liked to go to Arnhem in the cup tournament, but due to the shutdown there was some time for rest. Vitesse is playing this season in the Europa League and so the Arnhemmers could use some rest this week, especially because there will be three more matches this week.
Fortunately, the match against PSV, Zulte-Waregem and PEC Zwolle are all three games finished in their own Gelredome, so the Arnhemmers also do not have to travel far. That was what they had to do on the weekend last weekend when the Friesland extermination took place against SC Heerenveen. A few days earlier, Henk Fraser’s team still played 1-1 in Belgium against Zulte-Waregem and in Friesland won 0 to 4 with Heerenveen. At the Abe Lenstra Stadium, Tim Matavž and Navarone Foor returned to Fraser’s base team and both players were important with a hit, while Foor also gave an assist.
The Arnhemmers therefore have six points behind the Eindhoven and Vitesse has only one point behind Ajax at the time of writing. A victory at Eindhoven’s visitors could therefore bring some tension in the title battle and according to Fraser, the crowd is busy with visitors from Eindhoven on Sunday afternoon. “PSV is currently the team,” said the Vitesse coach. Fraser has trusted the Vitesse game this season against top clubs: “Certainly. Against Lazio, Ajax and Heerenveen, which are still difficult matches, we have shown what we are capable of. We can win those teams, but at the same time we are able to lose Swift in the cup. ”
PSV :
In Eindhoven, they are confident they can become a national champion this season. The Eindhoveners had five points ahead of Ajax and because the Amsterdammers managed to win Feyenoord last weekend, the lead on that team increased to eight points. Philip Cocu’s team lost only points in the match against SC Heerenveen (2-0 loss) this season, but all other matches in the league were just won by the Eindhovenaren. Although the wins on AZ (3-2), Roda JC (2-0) Feyenoord (1-0) were not too good, the final matches are always better at Eindhovenaren. Visiting VVV-Venlo (2-5 wins), the team of Cocu sometimes had a lot of trouble, but last weekend it was a lot easier with Heracles Almelo: 3-0.
Thursday evening, the Eindhovenians visited FC Volendam in the Cup. Cocu chose to give Adam Maher, Albert Gudmondsson and Bart Ramselaar a chance in the base team and the Eindhoven players did not play badly at the KRAS Stadium. However, Cocu saw that his team needed an extension to win from FC Volendam and it was eventually invader Marco van Ginkel who took the first goal of the game after 107 minutes. In addition to Van Ginkel, Hirving Lozano also regularly knows the net on behalf of Eindhoven and the Mexican scored against FC Volendam also just ahead of time and, with that, ended the final at 0-2.
Philip Cocu had no doubt that PSV had thrown the match in Volendam within 90 minutes, but there was an extension required, and that may be a disadvantage if you have to go to Vitesse on Sunday afternoon. Nevertheless, the Eindhoveners do not have European commitments like Vitesse this season and the Eindhoven will be fit enough to play Vitesse. Cocu can at least in Arnhem have Gastón Pereiro and Steven Bergwijn, who were not in Volendam. Behind the name of Jürgen Locadia is Sunday a question mark.
