An interesting home game against bottom-half side NEC Nijmegen awaits second-placed PSV Eindhoven this weekend. This Eredivisie match will be played at the Phillips Stadion on Saturday with the hosts second on nine points and the visitors 13th with four points. PSV are separated from the top-placed AZ Alkmaar only via goal difference. They are nevertheless on an impressive league run, winning 15 and drawing four in the league. That run saw them enter the international break with a 4-0 win, making it nine goals scored and just one conceded this season. In all competitions, they have drawn just once and won seven matches, giving them a distinct edge. Yet, PSV have an upcoming Champions League group match against Arsenal to plan for. As they look over their shoulders to plan for that, they come up against a side they defeated in 11 straight league encounters.

NEC travel here with just four points to their name in this season from four matches, already playing one more than their hosts. They did win all those points from their last two matches though, going into the international break with a 3-0 win over Waalwijk and a 1-1 draw against Sparta Rotterdam. All their matches have been interesting and exciting for neutral fans, as three of those four have ended with over 2.5 goals. Even on the road, NEC haven’t won a game this league campaign but both matches saw goals scored at both ends.
