The third match in eight days awaits Young PSV. On Friday night, coach Peter Uneken's team will host city rival FC Eindhoven. The derby will be played at PSV Campus De Herdgang.
Selection
Compared to the match against Jong Ajax, there are few changes. Rico Zeegers was missing against the Amsterdammers, but will be back against FC Eindhoven. That is not the case for Djenairo Daniels and Justin de Haas. The former was injured during training and will be absent against Eindhoven. Justin de Haas also has to watch from the stands due to a suspension. Both teams will wear mourning bands during the game in connection with the liberation of Eindhoven. The liberation of Eindhoven was exactly 76 years ago on Friday.
Statistics in favor
The past shows that Young PSV triumphed more often than FC Eindhoven. Of the seven previous encounters at De Herdgang, PSV won five. Indeed, the last five editions were all won by PSV's promise team. Last year, Uneken's team won 2-1 in the derby. Robin Schoonbrood, this week's Elftal of the Week, scored the winning goal in injury time.
The kickoff of Young PSV - FC Eindhoven is Friday night at 18:45. The game can be followed live on FOX Sports' switching program, FOX Sports 7 and PSV's social media channels.
