Prediction published on 09/05/2022, 17:05  by Indran in Eredivisie Predictions

PSV welcomes Nijmegen to the Philips Stadion for this match in the Eredivisie. The home team are in second position with 75 points while the visitors are in 9th position with 38 points. PSV are four points behind leaders Ajax but that could have easily have been two points had they not drawn their last match against Feyenoord. They led by two goals in the last match up until the 86th minute before conceding two late goals to draw 2-2. They will need to win their remaining two matches of the season and hope that Ajax drop at least four points which seems very unlikely. PSV have only lost once in their last 19 matches. Their recent home record is also excellent as they have won 8 out of their last ten matches with one draw and a loss.

Nijmegen have a lot to still play for as they currently in ninth position on goal difference. They have the same number of points as eighth placed Heerenveen. The four teams from 5th place to 8th place go into a playoff for a Europa Conference League position. Nijmegen had a very good 1-0 win at home to G.A Eagles in their last match which brought an end to a run of three successive defeats. They have lost three of their last four away matches which has severely dented their top eight hopes. Nijmegen have gained 34 points in their away matches this season while only picking up 14 points at home.
