Can PSV beat Sevilla? On Tuesday evening, Peter Bosz’s team faces an important match in the preliminary round of the Champions League. An excellent team is visiting the Philips Stadium with Sevilla. PSV must win the match if the club wants to make a serious attempt to hibernate in the Champions League.
In PSV’s first match, Arsenal were far too strong with a 4-0 score. No shame, because the English club is an absolute power in Europe, but it was painful. With Sevilla and Lens in the group, there is still the prospect of wintering in the Champions League. Although it is still difficult to estimate where these teams stand.
“We want to show as a team that we can handle this level.”
“I don’t know if Sevilla is less than Arsenal,” Peter Bosz said in a pre-match press conference on Monday afternoon. “Arsenal was simply too good. It is still difficult to estimate the relationship with Seville. The same applies to Lens.”
In any case, Luuk de Jong knows that PSV must focus on second place in the group. “We want to show as a team that we can handle this level. We will compete with Lens and Sevilla for second place.”
“We have to win on Tuesday.”
If PSV wants to take second place, the team must beat Sevilla on Tuesday evening. “We play at home on Tuesday, then you have to win. But it is only the second match in the group. So we should not make the match bigger.”
Jerdy Schouten trained again at PSV on Sunday. He will do that again on Monday evening. The midfielder was previously unfit. After Monday evening the decision will be made whether he can start. “The expectation is so. Furthermore, everyone remains fit. You can tell that things are going well. Then everyone also recovers faster from aches and pains,” Bosz concluded.
