PSV Eindhoven have won three of their last five league matches, but two defeats have kept them chasing the leaders rather than sitting alongside them. On Sunday they face Feyenoord at the Philips Stadion in a meeting that could shift the top of the Eredivisie.
Context and stakes
Feyenoord lead the table with 23 points from nine games. PSV are third with 19, four points behind, and the goal difference shows the gap in attacking output: Feyenoord are plus 21, PSV plus 15. With 18 clubs in the league, a result between two of the strongest sides carries weight well beyond three points.
Feyenoord’s momentum and PSV’s home record
Feyenoord come into this game with five straight league wins. They have scored 21 goals in that run and conceded only four, and they have not lost a league match all season, collecting seven wins and two draws from nine.
PSV have been just as hard to beat at home. They have won three and drawn one of their four league games in Eindhoven this season without defeat, and their last five matches have produced 12 goals for and seven against.
Head-to-head: PSV’s grip on the fixture
PSV have won every one of the last five meetings between the sides in the list provided. The most recent was a 3-0 win in February, and PSV also won 3-0 in December 2024 and 2-0 in the KNVB Cup in February 2025. Feyenoord have not beaten PSV in that stretch.
Team news: absences on both sides
PSV will be without S. Mijnans, who misses out after a red card, along with A. Nagalo (injury), A. Plea and K. Sildillia (both recovering from surgery) and J. Schouten (knee injury). S. Lammers, S. Ouaissa, R. Pepi, P. Wanner and R. van Bommel are doubtful.
Feyenoord are missing T. Beelen, who is out with a broken leg, and J. Bos, who has a knee injury. J. Moder, R. Nelson, B. Nieuwkoop, G. Smal and S. van Persie are all doubts.
Our prediction
PSV’s model favours the home side, and the football backs that up. Feyenoord’s attack has been firing, but PSV’s home form and their record over this opponent give them the edge. Expect an open game in which both sides find the net, with PSV’s control in Eindhoven proving decisive.

Groningen arrive in Nijmegen with the sharper attack and the better record on the road, while NEC are still searching for a home win this season.

Fortuna Sittard edged Excelsior 2-1 in February, and the contrast between the two sides is just as stark for this Sunday's rematch. One team scores, the other keeps conceding.

Ajax arrive fourth in the Eredivisie and unbeaten in their last five meetings with Sparta Rotterdam, who sit 13th. Sunday's match at Het Kasteel looks like another test of that hold on the fixture.

Sunday's clash in Alkmaar could decide which side keeps pace with the Eredivisie's leaders and which slips out of the top-two conversation. Both sides have strong recent form and plenty to play for.
