PSV Eindhoven vs Feyenoord
, KO: 17:00 Aug 4, 2024, Philips Stadion
PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord will officially kick off the Dutch football season when they meet in the Super Cup on Sunday. The clash will hold at Philips Stadion and PSV will be keen to make it count in front of their home fans.
PSV Eindhoven were the team to beat last term as they finished seven points clear at the top of the standings having suffered just one defeat all season. They carried that form into pre-season and head into Sunday’s clash off the back of two straight wins.
Manager Peter Bosz will be looking to maintain PSV Eindhoven’s fine record in the Super Cup having won the last three editions. They even claimed a 1-0 victory over Feyenoord to lift last year’s trophy and will be confident of a repeat.
Feyenoord did their best to keep up with PSV Eindhoven last season but ultimately fell just short and had to settle for second place. They did get some consolation in the end, winning the KNVB Beker having beaten the Eredivisie champions along the way.
By all indications, Feyenoord are coming into a transitional season having lost manager Arne Slot to Liverpool, with Brian Priske the new man at the helm. Pre-season was erratic for Feynoord who head into Sunday’s clash with defeats to Benfica and Monaco in their final two warm up games.
How’re bookies view it: PSV to prevail
PSV Eindhoven have been installed as overwhelming favourites among the bookies with a home win priced at 8/11 by Betfred. A victory for Feyenoord is valued at 3/1 by Betfred, who is also offering odds of 13/5 for a draw.
Recent head to head: Always closely fought
PSV Eindhoven claimed two wins while Feyenoord were victorious once in four meetings last season. Both teams battled to a 2-2 in their last fixture back in March, although one of PSV’s triumphs was a 1-0 victory in the Super Cup last August.
Players to watch: De Jong the man
Luuk de Jong was the top scorer for PSV Eindhoven last season with 29 Eredivisie goals and should be one of their leading lights once again this term. The striker could be worth keeping an eye on to score anytime on Sunday at 6/5 with Betfred.
Feyenoord also had a prolific striker of their own last season, with Santiago Gimenez finishing with 23 Eredivisie goals. The Mexican could be the one to watch and is priced at 2/1 by Betfred to find the net on Sunday.
Probable line-up
Luuk de Jong should lead the line once again for PSV Eindhoven and should have support from Noa Lang and Johan Bakayoko. While Ryan Flamingo and Olivier Boscagli should partner in the heart of the defence.
Santiago Gimenez sat out Feyenoord’s 3-1 defeat to Monaco on Wednesday and should return to the starting line up on Sunday. Igor Paixao should provide support in attack while the likes of Calvin Stengs and Quinten Timber should feature in midfield.
PSV Eindhoven: Benitez, Mauro Junior, Boscagli, Flamingo, Teze, Schouten, Saibari, Lang, Tillman, Bakayoko, De Jong
Feyenoord: Bijlow, Hancko, Beelen, Kasanwirjo, Lopez, Stengs, Timber, Nieuwkoop, Ivanusec, Igor Paixao, Gimenez
Anything else catch the eye?
There is plenty of attacking quality on both sides and Sunday’s clash could be set to produce goals. Over 4.5 goals is priced at 7/2 by Betfred, who is also offering odds of 13/8 for over 3.5 goals.
