The line-up of PSV for the squatter against Ajax in Eindhoven is known. Roger Schmidt keeps Mohamed Ihattaren out of the match selection after a mutual collision on the training field. The line-up is no different from that against Olympiacos in Thursday’s Europa League game. The match between the numbers two and one of the Eredivisie starts on Sunday at 2.30 p.m.
PSV’s preparation was disrupted by the collision between Schmidt and Ihattaren. The attacking midfielder was fit enough to play, but was not in the hotel where PSV will be staying in the run-up to the game on Saturday. He had to train for himself on Saturday. PSV must continue without Ibrahim Sangaré. The midfielder is normally a fixture in Schmidt’s team, but is missing due to a suspension. He was also suspended against Olympiacos. Olivier Boscagli again takes his place.
PSV actually has to win to keep the title battle exciting for the time being. After all, Ajax already has a lead of six points and still has a duel credit. The team from Eindhoven could also be less certain in second place in the event of a defeat, as AZ is four points behind and will face Feyenoord later on Sunday.
PSV line-up: Mvogo; Dumfries, Teze, Viergever, Max; Rosario, Boscagli; Thomas, Gotze; Grind, Zahavi.
