Action continues in the Eredivisie this weekend as PSV Eindhoven play host to Willem II on Sunday evening.
PSV have lost just one game in the Eredivisie this season and currently sit in third place, while Willem II are down in 12th with just a single victory to their name.
Despite that, Willem II will aim to spring an upset on Sunday.
PSV Eindhoven vs Willem II Head-to-Head
PSV’s domestic form has been strong this season. They’ve won five of their seven Eredivisie matches, and last weekend saw them bounce back from a loss to Vitesse by hammering Den Haag 4-0.
However, they slumped to defeat in the Europa League this week, losing to Greek side PAOK 4-1, and the loss has dented their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages.
Willem II are on a horrendous run of form right now. Their last win came against Heracles on September 20, and they’ve scored only three goals in the games that have followed.

PSV Eindhoven vs Willem II Prediction
PSV might have personnel issues at the moment, but that probably won’t stop them from recording a win at the weekend.
Willem II have performed poorly for weeks, leaking goals and failing to score them, and this looks like a tough match regardless of form. A home win is the most likely outcome in this game.
Prediction: PSV Eindhoven 2-0 Willem II
