PSV and Peter Bosz worked towards the match against FC Volendam with a big smile. The people of Eindhoven can once again have (fully) access to the necessary players who have not been completely fit recently. It is expected that Bosz will make one change: Joey Veerman for Mauro Júnior.

PSV still had to make do without Veerman last weekend against (Ajax), who had been struggling with a sensitive calf at the time. Veerman will be back against his old club, you know Eindhovens Dagblad. A big stroke of luck for PSV, which also received the good news that Jerdy Schouten has fully recovered from the respiratory infection.

In addition, Malik Tillman and Ricardo Pepi have recovered from their muscle problems, just like Sergiño Dest. The American international initially seemed likely to miss a game, but quickly recovered. Armel Bella-Kotchap, who suffered from a shoulder injury, has also already made his return to Jong PSV. The German is not yet ready for a match in PSV 1, just like Noa Lang and Guus Til.

PSV can take the next step towards the national title in Volendam. The Eindhoven team will further increase the pressure with a victory over Feyenoord, which will only come into action on Sunday evening. If PSV wins, the gap between the two clubs will increase to thirteen points and Feyenoord will have to deal with the stiff and frivolous Sparta Rotterdam once again.

PSV first has to deal with Volendam, which is seventeenth and has to catch up to avoid relegation. “I expect a team on Sunday that will do everything it can to stay in the Eredivisie,” Bosz said at the press conference. “We saw that Ajax, FC Twente and Almere City had adapted. Our team is prepared for all scenarios and must make maximum efforts.”

Earlier this season, PSV had little trouble with Volendam. Lang quickly opened the score in the Philips Stadium. Another player who is not present on Sunday, Til, doubled the score after halftime. Calvin Twigt then returned the favor on behalf of the visitors, before star Tillman ended the match in injury time: 3-1.

Possible PSV line-up: Benitez; Teze, Ramalho, Boscagli, Dest; Schouten, Saibari, Veerman; Bakayoko, De Jong, Lozano.
