Never before did PSV lose at home against N.E.C. 39 times the Nijmegen side visited, 35 times PSV won. A preview in figures and facts.
Five duels, one goal against
In the last five premier league matches against N.E.C., PSV only got one goals against. That was last season, in PSV's last home game against N.E.C. (2-1). Christian Santos then utilized a penalty. In those same five matches, PSV scored 16 goals.
Equaling
If PSV does not lose again, it equals two series held by Ajax, which remained unbeaten against an opponent 40 home duels in a row (N.E.C. and Willem II). The record is held by Feyenoord, which is unbeaten 48 home matches in a row against a specific opponent (NAC).
Finished before halftime
Earlier this season at De Goffert, it ended 4-0 for PSV. Bart Ramselaar, Gastón Pereiro, Joshua Brenet and Luuk de Jong then ensured that PSV finished with N.E.C. before halftime.
Poor run
The current number 12 of the Eredivisie is on a poorer run. N.E.C. lost the last three matches in the Eredivisie against Feyenoord, Go Ahead Eagles and PEC Zwolle. In addition, N.E.C. has failed to score in two away matches in a row. N.E.C.'s last victory was on January 22 at home against Roda JC.
