PSV Eindhoven will enter the box opposite Liverpool who mount the triumph of a more sensitive table.
The Reds pursue perfection, with the aim of ensuring their eighth victory in the trot and the most sensible place in the organization stage of the Champions League.
For PSV, it’s all about keeping their knockout playoff hopes alive. Head coach Peter Bosz, no stranger to facing Arne Slot after last season’s battles with Feyenoord, will be itching for his team to give the group leaders a run for their money.
They’re coming into the clash fresh off a nail-biting 3-2 victory over NAC Breda in the Eredivisie, a win that cemented their position at the summit of the Dutch league.

Luuk de Jong, one of the team’s two players with a Premier League delight in Liverpool, is just one purpose for PSV’s most sensible scorer in the Champions League. However, Ivan Perisic, the other player with the Premier League delights, should not be had due to not registering.

Liverpool have enjoyed relatively good fortune with injuries this season but face a few absences for this fixture. Curtis Jones remains unavailable after being forced off against Lille, while Joe Gomez and Diogo Jota are still a few weeks away from returning.
Key players like Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Trent Alexander-Arnold may be rested, though Salah could push to start as he eyes further additions to his tally of 50 European goals for Liverpool. Manager Arne Slot otherwise has a near-full squad at his disposal.

PSV boast an impressive 11-game unbeaten streak at home in Europe, but their last loss on their turf was to an English side, Leicester City, in 2022. Meanwhile, Liverpool have a perfect record against PSV, winning five of their six previous encounters, and they’ll be eager to maintain their 100% record in the group stage (now league-phase).
Even with potential rotations, Liverpool’s depth and experience should give them the edge to secure another victory and top the table in style with a perfect record.
