Although Groningen suffered a humiliating 4-1 defeat at the hands of Feyenoord earlier this week, they are enjoying their best top-flight campaign since the 2020/21 season.
Dick Lukkien's men are eighth in the Eredivisie with an 8-8-11 win-draw-loss record, an impressive feat considering they were promoted to the Dutch top flight at the end of last season.
On the other hand, PSV essentially lost the Eredivisie title race after their 2-0 home defeat to Ajax. They now trail the league leaders by nine points, with seven matches left to play.
As it stands, PSV are the expected winners at 2/5 (1.40). Teams with these odds usually have a 71.4% probability of winning.
