Fortuna Sittard vs PSV prediction: Another step closer to Eredivisie glory for PSV
Key stats
- PSV are on a five-game winning streak across all competitions.
- Fortuna Sittard are without a clean sheet in their last seven outings.
- This will be music to the ears of this weekend's visitors, whose last six matches have each produced at least three goals, albeit with both teams scoring in five.
Correct score prediction: Fortuna Sittard 1-3 PSV
PSV have picked up 36 of the last 36 points available in league action, and it is hard to see them being denied a 13th straight Eredivisie victory on Saturday.
Despite having one eye on their upcoming Champions League encounter against Newcastle United, the away side have enough in the tank to see off their hosts, which we tip them to do with relative ease.
Pre-game odds and win probability: PSV the overwhelming favourites
- HOME: 11/2 (6.50) – 15.4%
- DRAW: 9/2 (5.50) – 18.2%
- AWAY: 4/11 (1.36) – 73.5%
*Odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Currently the only Eredivisie team with a perfect away record, PSV have won all nine league matches on the road, and chances are they will make it 10 at the end of proceedings in Sittard.
After kicking off 2026 with a dominant 5-1 triumph over Excelsior, Peter Bosz's men made light work of Den Bosch to reach the KNVB Beker quarter-final ahead of their return to league duty.
Only three teams in the division have recorded more home wins than Fortuna's five, but Saturday's clash represents arguably their toughest home assignment of the campaign, and it is no surprise they have been given only a 15.4% win of claiming maximum points.
Danny Buijs's men were a tad unlucky not to edge Go Ahead Eagles in their most recent outing, where they came from behind to lead 2-1 heading into second-half stoppage time, during which Justin Hubner restored parity.

Fortuna preview: Justin Hubner's disciplinary lapses on show once again
After recently sitting out Fortuna's defeat to PEC Zwolle due to his red card against Ajax in the game prior, Hubner is once again unavailable due to suspension after receiving his fifth yellow card of the season last time out.
On the injury front, Ramazan Bayram, Jasper Dahlhaus, Houboulang Mendes, Daley Sinkgraven, Alen Halilovic and Luka Tunjic are all out of contention.
Predicted lineup: Branderhorst (GK), Pinto, Van Ottele, Marquez, Adewoye, Michut, Kasanwirjo, Peterson, Lonwijk, Ihattaren & Sierhuis
Fortuna's last five matches:
- Go Ahead Eagles 2-2 Fortuna (Eredivisie)
- Fortuna 4-3 AZ Alkmaar (Eredivisie)
- Fortuna 2-3 Almere City (KNVB Beker)
- Zwolle 1-0 Fortuna (Eredivisie)
- Fortuna 1-3 Ajax (Eredivisie)
PSV preview: Third straight title on the horizon
No team has won three consecutive Eredivisie crowns since Ajax in 2011-2014, but PSV look set to end that run this season, having put on a near flawless title defence so far.
Already 13 points clear of second-place Feyenoord, De Rood-witten already have one hand on the trophy, and it is theirs to lose from here on out.
Predicted lineup: Kovar (GK), Dest, Obispo, Flamingo, Sildillia, Veerman, Wanner, Droiuech, Til, Man & Bajraktarevic
PSV's last five matches:
- Den Bosch 1-4 PSV (KNVB Beker)
- PSV 5-1 Excelsior (Eredivisie)
- Utrecht 1-2 PSV (Eredivisie)
- PSV 3-0 GVV (KNVB Beker)
- PSV 4-3 Heracles (Eredivisie)
Player to watch – Joey Veerman
While he has always been a source of creativity, Veerman has now added goals to his game, having scored a personal-best eight league goals this term.
The midfielder put on a stellar display in his side's 5-2 triumph over Fortuna earlier this term, and you would not bet against him having a similar impact this weekend.
