PSV and Liverpool will lock horns with each other in the UEFA Champions League this week. The match between the Eredivisie club and the Premier League outfit will be held at the PSV Stadion and is scheduled to kick off at 8pm UK time on Wednesday.

PSV

PSV are one of the biggest clubs in the Netherlands who regularly challenge for the Eredivisie title and also compete in major European competitions. Boeren became the champions of the Netherlands last season and will aspire to do the same this time around.

Peter Bosz’s side are at the top of the Eredivisie table at the moment with 49 points from 20 matches, four points ahead of second-placed Ajax, who have played 19 games. PSV are 19th in the League Stage table in the UEFA Champions League table with 11 points from seven games, just two points behind eighth-placed Bayer Leverkusen.

PSV will head into the UEFA Champions League match against Liverpool at the PSV Stadion on Wednesday evening on the back of a 3-2 victory over NAC Breda at home in the Eredivisie. It came after a 3-2 victory over Red Star Belgrade on the road in Europe’s premier club competition, which followed a 3-1 defeat to PEC Zwolle away from home in the Eredivisie.

Team News:

PSV head coach Peter Bosz is likely to deploy a 4-3-3 formation against Liverpool. Benitez will be in goal for the Eredivisie club. Ledezma, Obispo, Boscagli and Mauro Jr will be in defence. Til, Veerman and Schouten will be the three midfielders. Bakayoko, De Jong and Lang are likely to be the three forwards.

Liverpool

Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world and are doing exceptionally well this season. This is Arne Slot’s first campaign in charge of the Reds, and there is a very good chance that the Merseyside outfit will win the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League.

The Reds are at the top of the Premier League table with 53 points from 22 matches. They are six points clear of second-placed Arsenal, who have played 23 games. Liverpool are also at the top of the League Stage standings in the UEFA Champions League. Slot’s side have won all seven of their games in Europe’s premier club competition and have already progressed to the Round of 16 stage.

Liverpool will head into the Champions League match against PSV on Wednesday evening on the back of a 4-1 victory over Ipswich Town at Anfield in the Premier League. It came after a 2-1 victory over Lille at home in the UEFA Champions League which followed a 2-0 victory over Brentford on the road in the league.

Team News:

Liverpool manager Arne Slot is likely to deploy a 4-3-3 formation against PSV. Kelleher will be in goal for the visiting team and will have Bradley, Quansah, Konate and Tsimikas in front of him in defence. Endo, Szoboszlai and Elliott will be the three midfielders. Salah, Nunez and Diaz will be the three forwards.

Key Factors to Consider

  • PSV have won 4 of their last 6 matches in all competitions.
  • PSV have won 3 of their last 6 UEFA Champions League matches.
  • Liverpool have won all 7 of their UEFA Champions League games this season.
  • Liverpool have won 4 of their last 6 matches in all competitions.
  • Liverpool have scored 15 goals and conceded 2 goals in 7 UEFA Champions League games this campaign.

Conclusion

PSV are in good form in the UEFA Champions League at the moment, while Liverpool are likely to field a second-string team, given that the Merseyside club have already qualified for the Round of 16 in Europe’s premier club competition. However, Liverpool will still be a very good team, and it is likely that the Reds will be able to pick up a point from the encounter.
