  • PSV have seen over 3.5 goals in 2 of their last 3 matches.

Head to Head


PSV have a 1-1 record advantage against Sporting CP.

They met in the 2019/20 Europa League group stage, PSV winning 3-2 in Eindhoven and Sporting winning 4-0 in Lisbon.

PSV Form


PSV Eindhoven started the season with a 4-4 draw against Feyenoord in the Super Cup, going on to lose the penalty shootout. They have won all seven matches in the Eredivisie.

The Dutch champions have scored 25-4 goals and are well on their way to another title. The biggest victory came in a 7-1 win at Almere City.

Peter Bosz’s side suffered a 3-1 defeat at Juventus in their opening Champions League match. It was a closer game than the result suggests, Ismael Saibari scoring a late consolation in added time.

PSV returned to the Eredivisie with two routine wins on the road, 3-1 at Fortuna Sittard and 2-0 at Willem II where Ricardo Pepi scored both goals.

PSV Injuries & Team News


Full-back Sergiño Dest is out until January due to a cruciate ligament injury.

Left-back Fredrik Oppegard and winger Hirving Lozano are doubtful.

Luuk de Jong has registered five goals and four assists this season.

Sporting CP Form


Sporting CP began the new campaign with a 4-3 extra time defeat to Porto in the Super Cup. They bounced back by winning eight straight games, scoring 27 goals with two conceded.

Ruben Amorim’s side have won all seven in the Primeira Liga and sit three points clear at the top of the table. They recorded a crucial 2-0 win against Porto in the Classico.

The Lions transferred their domestic form to the Champions League, beating Lille 2-0 in Lisbon where Viktor Gyokeres and Zeno Debast found the net.

Sporting haven’t been troubled since, beating AVS 3-0 at home before a 3-0 win at Estoril where they had 70% possession and 23-5 shots.

Sporting CP Injuries & Team News


Centre-back Jeremiah St. Juste remains out with a muscle injury.

Pedro Goncalves and Marcus Edwards are close to returning to action with Conrad Harder to continue in attack.

Viktor Gyokeres has scored 14 goals in his last 10 games.

Verdict

PSV and Sporting CP regularly score 2+ goals with an open and attacking game expected in Eindhoven. I am backing over 3.5 goals in the Champions League.
