The Eredivisie will return this weekend after a two-week break and one of the matchday 28 fixtures will see FC Twente host PSV Eindhoven on Saturday.
The home side come into the game on the back of a 1-0 victory over Zwolle before the international break. Daan Rots' 19th-minute strike was enough to help his side secure all three points.
PSV were rampant in a 5-0 thrashing of Sittard on home turf. Five different men got on the scoresheet for the Lightbulbs, with Eran Zahavi providing an assist to go with his goal.
The win helped them maintain their two-point deficit against table-toppers Ajax. Twente sit in fourth position on 54 points and Saturday's result could have huge ramifications on European qualification.

Twente vs PSV Prediction
Both sides need maximum points for different reasons. The hosts are within touching distance of direct qualification for the UEFA Europa League, while PSV Eindhoven are well-positioned to take advantage of any slip by Ajax in the title race.
They are also both on a good run of form and are likely to go all out in search of a victory. Twente are more defensively compact and might try to restrict the chances afforded to PSV but we are backing the visitors to secure a narrow victory.
Prediction: Twente 1-2 PSV Eindhoven
