Utrecht vs PSV Eindhoven prediction
THE FORECAST
Utrecht stands fifteenth with only 1 point and a weak defence (3.0 goals against per match on average), while PSV stands second with a strong attacking average of 3.0 goals for and good form (WWD). Transfer activity at Utrecht has been enormous with many departures and new faces, suggesting integration problems, and the injury list (including Nieuwkoop, Smal, Moder and Bos alongside the previously mentioned absentees) seriously affects squad depth. PSV does have their own injuries (Schouten, Driouech, Plea, Veerman), but the broader and qualitatively stronger squad absorbs those blows better, and the weather conditions (mild, light wind) pose no hindrance to PSV's intensive playing style.
