Fortuna Sittard vs PSV Predictions and Odds
PSV had a rough restart to the season but is now aiming to keep pressuring the leaders in a fight for the title.
Contents
PSV to Win
Losing a single point is not an option for PSV this time around. They ended the first part of the season by losing at home to AZ Alkmaar and restarted their campaign by only drawing at home against Sparta Rotterdam. PSV needs a win to continue its pursuit of the title. The good thing for them is that the last time they lost to Fortuna was in 1999, and they are holding a ten-match winning streak against the Sittard outfit.
Over 2.5 Goals
Not surprisingly, PSV is one of the best ‘over' teams in the league, however, the way they score goals will certainly change as they adjust to playing without their best player Cody Gakpo who was recently sold to Liverpool. However, they still have enough firepower up front to score goals, and in the past three h2h meetings with Fortuna, the 2.5 mark was settled.

Team News, Possible Lineups, and Preview
Fortuna Sittard
Teams like Fortuna seem to be destined for a fight to stave off relegation each season, and the Sittard team is doing their work at the moment. But, they are not that far away from the danger zone. Nobody is predicting that Fortuna could beat PSV, but as the Eindhoven team already proved this season, they can lose to teams that are not part of the highest echelon of football in the country. Fortuna lost three times in their last four matches and their home record is among the worst in the league. They only have two wins in front of their fans this season, and with PSV coming to town, that negative aspect could be prolonged. It has been 24 years since the last time Fortuna beat PSV. Arianit Ferati and Dimitrios Siovas are injured for the home team.
Possible lineup: Pandur, Cox, Guth, Navarro, Pinto, Cordoba, Ozyakup, Erdogan, Embalo, Yilmaz, Gladon.
PSV
In their first game, since they sold Cody Gakpo to Liverpool, PSV drew against Sparta, just to beat the same opponent a few days later in the Cup. However, failing to win their last two league matches gave some additional motivation to their opponents for the title, Feyenoord and Ajax to be precise. PSV is always predicted to be in the running for the title, however, when you sell your best player in the middle of the season, things can become uneasy. Gakpo had nine goals and 12 assists for the team this season, and somebody needs to step up and make sure the opportunities keep coming for the forwards. Luuk de Jong is the one most people will look towards, he only scored three goals this season as the team's main striker option. Coach Ruud van Nistelrooy has some availability issues to be concerned about: Savio, Fode Fofana, Mauro Junior, and Olivier Boscgali are injured.
Possible lineup: Drommel, Teze, Ramalho, Branthwaite, Max, Simons, Sangare, Gutierrez, Madueke, de Jong, El-Ghazi.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.

Player to Watch: Xavi Simmons
If anyone can replace Cody Gakpo's output, it's Simmons. He was already the second-best player on the team, and now is looking to make sure he becomes the focal point. He has eight league goals with four assists this season and will need to add to that tally so PSV can continue their pursuit of the title.
