d**k Advocaat’s men would be gunning to keep their 100 percent winning record at home when they take on Peter Bosz’s men, who have thus far performed erratically this term.
In the 11th round of Dutch top flight football, PSV Eindhoven will battle against Heracles Almelo at Philips Stadion on Sunday, November 4.
PSV Eindhoven
The Boeren are heading into the game on the back of a comfortable 3-1 win in their mid-week KNVB beker Cup clash against EHC. A goal each from Memphis Depay, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Georginio-Wijnaldum-c14629 and Gianluca Maria secured an easy win for the Eindhoven giants, while Ron Starmans’
strike remained a mere consolation for the Dutch fourth tier outfit.
PSV are determined to lift the Eredivisie title this term, and have commenced the 2012/13 season impressively. Occupying the second spot on the league table, they are only a single point behind the table-toppers, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 Enschede. They have an overall
record of 10 played, 8 won and 2 lost.
d**k Advocaat, the Eindhoven giants’ boss, was not completely satisfied with his side’s mid-week Dutch cup win over the Amateur club, and has urged his troops to put in a dazzling show in the upcoming clash to bag all three points in style.
Heracles Almelo
The Heraclieden cruised to an easy 2-0 victory over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Samuel-Armenteros-c32384 netted twice to help his side make progression to the next phase of the competition.
The Almelo-based club has thus far staged erratic shows both at home and on the road. Occupying the seventh spot on the Eredivisie table, they have an overall record of 10 played, 3 won, 5 drawn and 2 lost.
Peter Bosz, the Heraclieden head coach, would be hoping that his side could manage to grind out a decent result in their upcoming clash against PSV, though, he knows that it will not be an easy task to play against the in-form Eindhoven-based club.
Head-to-Head statistics
The Boeren have managed to emerge victorious in all of their last five meetings against Heracles.
Players to watch
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 Eindhoven
The Belgian ace, targeted by several elite European clubs, has been in the form of his life. Netting four goals while setting up an impressive six more in 10 Eredivisie appearances, the pint-sized winger has remained a constant menace down the left flank
for every opposition PSV has faced thus far.
Ninos Gouriye – http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Heracles-Almelo-c39520
The 21-year-old attacker has been used very smartly by his coach, Peter Bosz. The promising youngster has played nine league games thus far, but he came from the bench in four matches. Nonetheless, his performances have not been affected at all, as the Dutchman
has already netted seven goals, and would be gunning to add more to his tally on Sunday.
Prediction
PSV have been performing brilliantly this term, and their recent form coupled with the home advantage suggests that they will manage to bag all three points comfortably.
Predicted score-line: PSV 3-1 Heracles.
