PSV Eindhoven hosts Heracles Almelo in the Eredivisie on Friday. Here’s everything you want to know.
PSV Eindhoven are remarkably unbeaten in the Eredivisie this season. They are about to enjoy an “undefeated” crusade with 19 wins, two draws, and 0 losses in the division.
PSV won their last match 5-1 against FC Volendam, with Ricardo Pepi among the scorers. The USMNT striker has been most commonly used as a replacement this season — captain Luuk de Jong is their starting striker. However, Pepi has still scored seven goals in 29 games in all competitions this season.
Pepi is part of a trio of USMNT players at PSV, which also includes Malik Tillman and Sergino Dest. Tillman is on loan from Bayern Munich and has five goals and 3 assists in 15 Eredivisie appearances this season.
Dest is on loan from Barcelona and has scored one goal and provided four assists in the Dutch league this season. PSV have an option to buy Dest, but with the announcement of Xavi’s departure from Barca, he may have to revisit his parent club at the end of the season.
The Eredivisie already seems to be over for PSV, who lead second-placed Feyenoord with 10 points. They also have Champions League worries to worry about and will face Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16 next week.
This Friday’s match against Heracles Almelo is important, PSV will also be keeping an eye on the following Tuesday’s match against Dortmund.
Heracles is currently 14th in the Eredivisie and 4 points above the relegation zone. They have two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five games. Last time out they beat Vitesse Arnhem 3-2.
