PSV Eindhoven’s best effort last season wasn’t good enough; they finished second, behind Ajax in the Eredivisie. They hope to do better this time and their domestic campaign starts with an away game at Heracles, who finished ninth last season. Heracles are coming from a very busy preseason, where they played 10 matches, and won just four. Towards the end of their preseason, they set a good run, winning three and drawing one. They’ve scored in each of their last five matches and will be looking to take this run to the PSV game but most important will be getting their league run in shape. They wrapped up last season with just one win in the final five matches. In the corresponding fixture last season, they drew 1-1 with PSV. That was just one of two matches they’ve avoided defeat in their last 11 meetings.

In the last 11 matches against Heracles, PSV are unbeaten, with nine wins. They are in fine form so far this season, and will be outright favorites here. PSV have already played five matches, four in the Champions League and one in the Super Cup against arch rivals Ajax. They’ve won all, the most recent being 1-0 against Midtjylland in the Champions League qualifiers. Earlier, they beat Ajax 4-0 to give a big statement going into the new season. In the four matches that came before the Champions League game, PSV had scored two or more goals in each. Having conceded just two goals in the last five matches points to a well drilled defensive side.
