Prediction

  • PSV will be looking to prevent AZ from achieving a sixth consecutive victory at Philips Stadion on Saturday.
  • Currently, PSV is six points ahead of Ajax at the top of the table. They won their last Eredivisie match 3-0 at home against Feyenoord, extending their unbeaten home run to 35 matches.
  • In their last Eredivisie game, AZ secured a 1-0 victory over Twente at home, marking their fifth consecutive win. This puts them in fifth place with 32 points, just three points behind fourth-placed Feyenoord for a spot in the Europa League qualifiers.
  • In their previous Eredivisie encounter, PSV triumphed over AZ with a 2-1 victory at AFAS Stadion in October. Luuk de Jong opened the scoring for PSV in the 15th minute, followed by a goal from Noa Lang. Denso Kasius scored the only goal for AZ in the 90th minute.
  • PSV has had the upper hand against AZ recently, winning four straight encounters since May 2023. In these matches, PSV has outscored AZ with 13 goals for and only three against.
  • Ricardo Pepi has been essential for PSV this season, leading the team with 10 goals, which ranks him tied for second among the league's top scorers. Notably, three of his goals have been the crucial match openers.
  • For AZ, Troy Parrott has also been a key player in front of goal, scoring 10 times and contributing five match-opening goals. He is also tied for second among the league's top scorers in the 2024/2025 season.
  • At home this season, PSV has been perfect, winning all eight of their Eredivisie matches, scoring 32 goals and conceding just three. In contrast, AZ has achieved five wins, one draw, and two losses in their away league matches this season.
