The Eredivisie is back with another round of fixtures this weekend as PSV Eindhoven take on a feisty Fortuna Sittard outfit at the Philips Stadium. PSV Eindhoven endured a fairly disappointing 2019-20 campaign and will want to bounce back this season.
Fortuna Sittard are yet to win a fixture in the Eredivisie this season but have managed to present a good account of themselves in the three games they have played so far. The away side punched above their weight last week with a late goal from Zian Flemming stealing a point in a 3-3 draw with AZ Alkmaar.
PSV Eindhoven have made a positive start to the season with two victories from three games but will have to take it up a notch to keep pace with Ajax at the top of the table. The home side was held to a 1-1 draw by Heracles last week and will want to return to winning ways in this game.
PSV Eindhoven vs Fortuna Sittard Head-to-Head
PSV Eindhoven have a near-flawless record against Fortuna Sittard and have won seven of the last eight games played between the two sides. Fortuna Sittard have been dismal against the Dutch giants in the past and will want to turn their fortunes around in this fixture this weekend.
The previous meeting between these two sides resulted in an emphatic 5-0 victory for PSV Eindhoven. Donyell Malen was brilliant on the day for PSV and is likely to feature in this game.
