Shakhtar Donetsk
PSV looks poised for another home victory as they take on Shakhtar.
Matches like this are crucial for PSV to climb the standings, especially after securing impressive tactical draws against stronger opponents—1:1 away at PSG and 1:1 at home against Sporting Lisbon.
Throughout their Champions League campaign, PSV has demonstrated an excellent balance between youthful energy and senior experience, backed by a skilled coaching staff that brings out the best in the squad.
Their opponents, Shakhtar, come into this game with momentum after a valuable 2:1 home win against Young Boys in the previous round. However, PSV will need to adapt to notable absences, including their captain De Jong and playmaker Schouten, which could impact their approach.
What we say
PSV to Win
Even without their two key players, PSV remains the favorite to win this match against a Shakhtar side that has struggled offensively, scoring just twice in four games while conceding five.
PSV's tactical maturity, player quality, and current form all tilt the scales in their favor, making them well-positioned to secure a victory.
