An interesting encounter was on the calendar for the D1. At the Herdgang they played against direct competitor Willem II. A draw would be enough for PSV to become champions. However, PSV did not play well and lost 1-3. This first points loss of the season meant postponement of a possible championship. Next week in and against Den Bosch the championship can still be won. A salient detail is that last year PSV D1 also took the championship against FC Den Bosch.
