PSV vs Royal Union SG: Match Preview

PSV won last season’s Eredivisie and secured a spot in the UEFA Champions League without going through the qualifiers. They have a manageable start, facing Royal Union SG first, followed by Bayer Leverkusen, Napoli, and Olympiacos. However, tougher matches against Liverpool, Bayern, Newcastle, and Atletico are approaching. Therefore, it’s important for PSV to secure a win to build momentum. Last season, they made it to the round of 32, where they defeated Juventus but lost to Arsenal in the round of 16, a respectable achievement for the team.

Royal Union SG, on the other hand, celebrated their first-ever Belgian league title last season, marking a historic entry into the UEFA Champions League. Their motivation is high, and they have started the new season strong, remaining unbeaten after seven matches with five wins and two draws. They currently sit at the top of the Jupiler Pro League, three points ahead of the nearest competitor.
